The surviving business records of 'The Scotsman', 'The Weekly Scotsman' and 'The Evening Dispatch', consisting largely of financial records, 1832 to 1964. Other records have survived only sporadically. These include minutes of directors, 1868-1880, and for the 1940s and 1950s, records of debenture stock, office diaries for 1915 and 1941, and papers of libel cases brought against the newspaper.

Unless otherwise stated, the business records relate to the administration of the entire concern rather than individual titles.
