On the Shelf: New items added to Center for Restoration Studies collections, October 2023

In October our colleagues in Technical Services and Cataloging added 191 items to Special Collections holdings.  Continuing the work from summer, we added more language editions of Max Lucado’s books.  There will be many more of these coming into the collection soon, giving us as an authoritative collection of Max’s books as can be found anywhere.  Between tracts, bound periodicals, A/V materials, and monographs, the REST collection grew by almost 160 items.  We added one new hymnal to the Taylor hymnal collection and the remainder went into the ACU ARCH and ARCH A/V, two collections devoted to anything published or produced by the University.

Library, Abilene Christian College, 1917. The library was in the Administration Building on the old downtown campus. The Prickly Pear Yearbook for 1917 is available at: https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth39970/m1/44/

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.
