The Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame and Museum (SSHFM) archives contain an abundance of information on our inductees as well as Saskatchewan sport teams. A brief sampling of the material available includes:

+ Published material (newspaper clippings, web sites, magazines, etc.)

+ SSHFM-generated material (biographies, citations that were read at the time of an inductee's induction, exhibit text, etc.)

+ Sport photographs (copyright protected)

+ Saskatchewan Roughriders

It should be noted that the majority of this information is not in electronic form so it must be researched in more traditional ways.

Please be aware that due to the large volume of inquiries we receive and the limited staff available to process them, guidelines have been developed specific to research requests. Individuals who have extensive research needs are encouraged to make an appointment to visit the SSHFM in person to perform their research.

All research requests must be in writing. Please submit your request to:

Please provide sufficient notice to allow the SSHFM Curator, or designate, appropriate time to facilitate the request. The staff, to ensure that it could be accomplished at the absolute minimum cost for the researcher, will evaluate each individual research request. The Applicant will assume any and all responsibility for questions of copyright that may arise from the preparation of reproductions or their use in any way.
