Restrictions
on Specific Materials:
You
should be aware that some materials are under restricted access and
may not be copied.
These restrictions are detailed below. |
- Presbytery
and Session records are held as restricted materials, due to the
nature of the pastoral issues that may be discussed within these
records, and so are normally available only to verified members
of those bodies. The usual length of this viewing restriction
is fifty years from the date of origin, unless otherwise noted.
Researchers who desire to examine specific records should first
contact the Stated Clerk of the Presbytery or Session in question,
requesting a letter of written permission. [We will be happy to
supply you with the proper addresses.] The original of this letter
should be sent by the Stated Clerk directly to the PCA Historical
Center and upon receipt, those specific records can then be made
available.
- A relative
few collections are either in part or in whole under a viewing
restriction due to their sensitive content. Outside of Presbytery
and Session records, perhaps less than 1% of the Center's holdings
fall into this category. Where they occur, these restrictions
are prominently posted in the finding aids of the Collection.
