On the Shelf: New items added to Center for Restoration Studies collections, December 2021

In December our colleagues in Technical Services and Cataloging added 212 items to Special Collections holdings.  About 130 items fed into the main print collection (which we call REST), plus about 60 into REST A/V while the remainder filled in gaps in our Taylor Hymnal Collection, ACU Authors and ACU Archive collections.  Some of the additions are newly published, others are new-to-us, and still others represent a second copy or a new-to-us edition or printing.  The tract project continues with most of new entries for REST coming in the form of newly-processed tracts, booklets and pamphlets.  We will have a fine set of tracts, all cataloged, when this project is complete.

Our goal is to build a comprehensive research-level collection of print materials by, for, and about the Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement.  But beyond assembly and preservation, a collection should be discoverable by those who need the information.  Collecting and preserving is only part of our task; those objects must be described and made available.  Thanks to the close and careful work of our colleagues upstairs, who describe our holdings, these materials are now discoverable. By discoverable I mean a patron can utilize our online catalog (such as by searching by author, or title, or subject) to find these materials.
