Public Relations was a Section within the Department of Community Relations. Public Relations promoted Nova Scotia Technical College and Technical University of Nova Scotia through press releases, events, publicity material and providing information. Public Relations also documented events, faculty, staff and students in order to provide photographs and audio and visual recordings for publications and research.

Convocations through the 1990s are fully documented through photographs, audiocassettes, videocassettes and programmes. Construction of campus buildings is well- documented in photographs. The photographs are a visual record of many of the events, people and buildings of Nova Scotia Technical College/Technical University of Nova Scotia/DalTech. Many photographs are labelled; however many others have little identifying information. Some contextual information can be gained by looking for similar images in the publication Tech Flash. All of the photographs in this series may not have been acquired or filed as Public Relations records, but if they did not appear to be created by any other department, they were kept with all other photographs. All photographs and audiovisual material are described in a separate database.
