Unofficial Archives of the Natural Museum, 1848-1992, containing papers closely related to the Museum and its work, but are not strictly speaking part of its official archive. Photographs and newscuttings belong in this category, as do the papers of associate or part-time workers, benefactors and trustees. The papers of the Museum's union branch, the Sports and Social Club and the Scientific Officers Association will all be found here, as well as newscuttings relating to the Museum. Papers of former members of staff given after the individual has left the Museum are generally placed here, as they will often contain a mixture of official and private papers. There is also a series for any small donations or purchases of individual items or small collections.

The collections comprise:

DF5000 British Museum East Africa Expedition, 1924-1931: correspondence and papers

DF5001 Papers of Mervyn Herbert Nevil Story-Maskelyne (1823-1911), mineralogist
