During World War II, he served with the Royal Canadian Artillery and was discharged with the rank of captain in 1945. In 1973 he was made an honorary colonel. Dr. Archer received a BA in 1947 and an MA in 1948 from the University of Saskatchewan. In 1949 he received a Bachelor of Library Science degree from McGill University. From 1951-1964 Dr. Archer was the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan librarian and from 1956-1961 he was the assistant clerk of the Legislature. From 1957 to 1962 he was the provincial archivist. From 1962-1964 Dr. Archer was chairman of the Committee on Continuing Education in Saskatchewan. From 1964-1967 Dr. Archer was the director of libraries at McGill University. From 1967-1970 he was an archivist and associate professor of history at Queen's University. He earned his Doctor of Philosophy degree from Queen's University and completed his Ph.D. dissertation, entitled "Administration of Archival Institutions in Canada," in 1969. In October 1969 Dr. Archer was appointed Principal of the University of Saskatchewan, Regina Campus, and when the University of Regina was established on 1 July 1974, he became its first President, serving until the end of 1975.
