Project Overview

The funds made is possible to hire a qualified archivist to assess college archives in preparation for improved storage.

The Library staff can begin to both organize and set policies for the College Archives. The Archives will be well positioned in the future so staff can better respond when inquiries are made from within and from outside the College. With Collection policies  in place, appropriate material can be added regularly  going forward and policies on use of the Archives will prevent loss of valuable material.
