Archives of the University of Santo Tomas
The ''Archives of the University of Santo Tomas'' (AUST), formerly known as the ''Archivo de la Universidad de Santo Tomas'', is located at the Miguel de Benavides Library in Manila. The AUST is the central repository of historical and rare documents pertaining to, but not exclusively, to the history of the Pontifical and Royal University of Santo Tomas, the oldest existing university in Asia, and of the history of higher learning in the Philippines in general. The collections consist of historical documents such as Papal bulls, royal decrees, rare Filipiniana prints, historical treatises, addresses, sermons, novenas, catechisms in many Philippine dialects, national periodicals, and academic records of all educational institutions in the Philippines during the Spanish period. The archives is also home to the only incunabula, or books printed before 1500, in the country.〔(University of Santo Tomas Archives ) ''University of Santo Tomas Website'' accessed June 17, 2012〕
Aside from having one of the largest collection of 15th-, 16th-, 17th-, and 18th-century European manuscripts in Asia, the archives also boasts of possessing the biggest collection of extant ancient baybayin scripts in the world.〔〔(UST collection of ancient scripts in ‘baybayin’ syllabary shown to public ) ''Inquirer.net'' accessed June 17, 2012〕
