Archives Task Force
The Archives Task Force was formed in 2005 and has been charged with:
- becoming familiar with the archives in their current state;
- examining how to make the archives more accessible for use;
- beginning work on cataloguing electronically the items of the archives (both using a database catalog and digitally photographing physical items);
- reviewing the guidelines for use of the archives then proposing guidelines to the Executive Council for approval;
- making contacts with various historical societies, especially the State Archivist and Episcopal Church Archivist, for the proper care of archive items, with the possible permanent loan of some items of significant historical value or in need of climate controlled conditions;
- examining and seeking out items that may be missing from the archives, e.g. old Journals;
- working with congregations to establish their own archives, or removing them to the diocesan archives;
- beginning to electronically catalog content of items in the archives, e.g.parish registers.
