Collections

Information regarding collections maintained by the Travis County Archives can be found by accessing the Archon online database system.  Available collections are listed below, and additional collections will be added as they are processed. 

Currently the Archives is open by appointment only.  If you wish to access a collection from the Archives, either send an email using the Archon system or contact us.  As most materials are located offsite, it is best to contact us about the specific collection you wish to view prior to arranging your visit.

Most records of the County Clerk and the District Clerk are maintained by those offices.

• For records of the District Clerk, including those relating to the civil and criminal district courts and family law matters, please call (512) 854-9457 or visit http://www.co.travis.tx.us/district_clerk/.
