The HAHC has set up a Contemporary Archive where day-to-day important developments, specially related to Haryana are documented. This is done mainly with the help of clippings and articles from 18 newspapers and over a dozen magazines and journals. The subjects include : Education, Health, Agriculture, Water, Sports, History, Heritage, Panchayats and Khaps, Politics, Weaker Sections, Gender Problems (general, honour killing, female foeticide, sex ratio, dowry, rape, domestic violence and other matters), Cartoons and Illustrations.

The clippings and write-ups (over 39,000) relating to the above subjects are preserved and catalogued in the Records Room. These will shortly be digitalised and put online.
