Photo tour through the archivesThe photo tour of the archives starts in the administrative area of the main archive (the 'A' archive) with six work desks, report & clipping collections, reference books, computers and a new copier. This is where all new donations 'land' and are sorted into a general order. In the forefront veteran archivist Sven-Olov Svensson who has worked with the archives since 1980, and Anci Mårdh who is a volunteer with AFU since year 2000.

The AFU archives takes care of many hundreds of kilos of old and used UFO materials every year. Mostly donations and depositions by ufologists, UFO societies and collectors who have given up their interest, or by the heirs of deceased collectors previously active in the UFO- and associated fields. We also maintain exchange programs with researchers, archivists and archives throughout the world.
Everything from books, reference works, magazines & newsletters, clippings, UFO reports, organizational and personal files to microfilms, photos and illustrations, posters, paraphernalia, videos, audio cassette tapes, maps and unpublished manuscripts is archived and preserved for posterity.
