Scope and content
The collection contains material files and partly personal files from the administration of the Medical Academy Düsseldorf and the administration of the hospitals. Since both were closely connected and the files were also pre-archived mixed, a separation of the two provenances was neither possible nor sensible. The files were taken from the University Administration, from the Dean's Office of the Faculty of Medicine (which, after the founding of the University in 1965, took over parts of the tasks and thus the files of the Academy Administration) and from the Institute for the History of Medicine, which had a security function here until the founding of the University Archive. It cannot be ruled out that further files will be found in the future which can be assigned to file 1/ 2. In any case, it is a collection that has come into existence in large parts by chance, since it contains what has remained over decades and not what has been handed down through the archival evaluation of an intact registry. Gaps in the tradition are obvious. They can be closed only partially by the complementary tradition in the city archives. The duration of the stock extends until 1982 with follow-up files. However, a fundamental cut was made for the academy files in 1965 (university foundation) and for the files of the hospitals in 1973 (transition of the hospitals to the state of NRW). When researching the 1960s, it is advisable to also refer to the partially parallel holdings 1/ 5 (university administration) and 3/ 9 (administration of the university hospital).
