Some accessions are appraised on site before transfer, others are appraised when received at Palace Green. Clean duplicates are generally removed.
Continuous further accruals are anticipated. In April 2004, a retention schedule and other records management procedures were developed for the university's records to facilitate the regular transfer of records from the university's departments
and offices to the archive. This draft retention schedule was developed further on the appoitment of the first university records manager in August 2006.
Open access and even borrowable copies of much of this material are available in Durham University Library at Palace Green, along with other newsletters of the university and its colleges. Some copies of earlier twentieth century student journals
are accessible in the printed collections of Archives and Special Collections.

UND/K2 1876 - July 1995
Durham University Journal, Volumes I to LXXXVII/2
With also the extra complimentary number
The Lightfoot centenary lectures : to commemorate the life and work of Bishop J.B. Lightfoot (1828-89), ed James D.G. Dunn, (Durham 1992) and the special supplement Katherine M. Hutton,
The
adventures of Mr. Verdant Green, or, An idea in need of a publisher, (Durham 1994).
There have been a number of student magazines/journals/newspapers containing a variety of prose and poetry, news, gossip and sports and society reports for student consumption in Durham in the wake of and as a contrast to the more official
Durham University Journal which began in 1876. The waning of initial enthusiasm, problems of securing adequate copy and financial difficulties along with on occasion official disapproval meant the lifespan of many was
brief but some have persisted to provide a less reverent Durham focus on life at the university from the late nineteenth to mid twentieth centuries.
The Undergrad began with something of this varied vein of material on 18 February 1886 and lasted 3 issues until 30 November 1887.
In Statu Pupillari revived the genre on 17 June 1893,
proclaiming itself “The Lawful Successor” of its predecessor which had “perished at the hands of the Warden and Senate”. A second issue of the same title in a rather different format
appeared in 1894. No.1 of
The Critic appeared on 23 June 1894 and a 2nd edition of
The Whirligig survives, undated, but possibly for June 1902 when
The
Jabberwock made its first appearance, with a second edition surviving from probably the following year. Meantime,
Blue Stocking had issued its first number in February 1903 with the familiar editorial
declaration of “not entering into competition with …
The D.U.J.” and being concerned with “fancies, some, indeed, based on facts”. This journal reached
issue 5 by November of that year. Its relative success was exceded by
The Sphinx which first appeared on 9 March 1905 and had produced fully 8 volumes by June 1922 when it seems to have expired. An issue of
The Wear survives for Michaelmas 1922.
The Palatine also appeared in December 1922 with an editor elected by the S.R.C.. Although this editor felt “confident
about the future” in the second number in March 1923, his organ was then being challenged by the independent periodical
The New Durham which issued its first number in the same month and which had incorporated
its rival by its second issue of June 1923. This had produced two volumes of numbers by Epiphany 1927 before embarking on a New Series in Michaelmas that year, run by a committee from the JCRs of the Durham Colleges who elected one of their number
as editor.
The New Durham then persisted until June 1962 and the demise of the Durham Colleges. It had meantime been joined, briefly by
The Vision for an issue in Michaelmas 1945, and
more permanently by the S.R.C. newspaper
The Palatinate in 1948.
In more recent times, other short-lived student magazines (copies on open access in the printed local collection at Palace Green Library) have included:
Lead Balloon (2 issues, c.1980);
The
Idler (5 issues, [1981-1982]);
Inside Out (1 issue, 1984);
The New Idler Incorporating Drone (1 issue, 1985).

other ‘decorations’ are mostly bypassed.
