COLLEGE ARCHIVES

In preparation for the move to the new
building, many people may be cleaning
out their files. Please do not forget
about the Archives. It would be a
great loss if valuable historical mat-
erials were to be lost or misplaced in
the move.

Guideline for transferral of files to
Archives are as follows:

1. Faculty, staff and departments
should forward to the Archives
material which is no longer needed
for current use.

2. Files should be examined every two
or three years for transferral of
materials.

3. No paper, photographs, blueprints,
etc. should be discarded without
prior consideration of their suit-
ability for the Archives.

4. Materials which may be discarded:

 

- requests for course information,

- acknowledgements and letter of
transmittal,

- outdated mailing lists,

- memos about the physical arrange-
ment of meetings,

- applications for positions,

- notes on interviews with unsuc-
cessful applicants.

The Archives does not save everything
passed on to it. Records are considered
to be of permanent value if they are
useful for administrative or historical

research. Files are kept in acid-

free boxes in the same order in which
they were received. Findings aids
listing the contents of each box are
typed up, and these lists serves as
indexes to the contents of the Archives.

Materials can normally be used in the
Archives room, unless it is confiden-
tial. Photocopies can be made of most
Materials, or, in some instances, the
originals can be borrowed for a short
time. All use is with consent of the
Archives Librarian.

In order to transfer or use material,
contact Jean Cockburn, the Archives
Librarian, at Winslow local 20.
