The archive is a part of the Kaunas State Drama Theatre. The theatre was the first professional drama theatre in Lithuania, established in 1920. It was an important cultural centre in the 'provisional' capital of the Republic of Lithuania between 1918 and 1940. During Soviet times, after the capital of Soviet Lithuania was moved to Vilnius, the Kaunas State Drama Theatre played an important role in attracting students and the intelligentsia. Provocative productions often became subjects of discussion among residents of the city.

The Archive of Corvinus University, the former Karl Marx University Economic Sciences (MKKE), was established in 1987, but the collecting and preserving the documents started much earlier. The archive includes sources on the history of the university and its leadership, offices, and the students’ personal files. The name of the university was changed from MKKE to Budapesti Közgazdaságtudományi Egyetem in 1990, and then Corvinus University in 2004.

The Archives of the Republic of Kosovo opened in 1948 following the end of World War II, when the Provincial Directorate for Education and Culture established the Archival Center to address the protection and documentation of archival material. On 20 March,1951, at the decision of the Provincial Council, the Kosovo State Provincial Archives were established. Until 1965, the institution operated under the direct supervision and funding from the Provincial Executive Council of Kosovo. In 1968, regional and municipal archives were established, which initiated an archival network within the territory of Kosovo that included inter-municipal archives in Prizren, Peja/Peć, Mitrovica, Gjilan/Gnjilane, Pristina, and the Historical Archives of Gjakova/Đakovica. When the Socialist Republic of Serbia (SRS) abolished autonomy in the province of Kosovo, and imposed violent measures within all institutions of the country, the Archives of the Republic of Kosovo became controlled by the SRS.

After the end of the recent war in Kosovo (1998 – 1999), the Archives of the Republic of Kosovo moved between various institutions in Kosovo. Initially, archival service was overseen by the Ministry of Culture, Youth, and Sports. On 13 July, 2006, archival administration within the government of Kosovo adopted a new form of organization based on other European models, under law no. 02 / L-80. Archives were organized by the State Agency at the office of the Prime Minister until 31 December 2016. At the decision of the government on 1 January 2017, operations returned to the Ministry of Culture, Youth, and Sports.
