The Cultural Audit project began at the University of Edinburgh in 2004, with a remit of identifying hidden treasures in its non-formal ‘distributed heritage collections’ across the University. The continuing aim of the Cultural Collections Audit is to locate and record objects of cultural significance to the University. The objects and collections recorded in the Audit range widely from fine art and furniture, to historical scientific and teaching equipment, photographs, architecture and commemorative items.

Since the project's inception in 2004, the information gathered has been used to assist, inform, and inspire University colleagues and the greater public.
