The file set includes clippings, articles, promotional materials, newsletters, photographs and ephemera from or about 325 such entities.\u00a0 It complements four similar sets of vertical files, all housed as part of the collections of Center for Restoration Studies: <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalcommons.acu.edu\/verticalfiles_findingaids\/2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Church Leaders Biographical Files<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalcommons.acu.edu\/verticalfiles_findingaids\/3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Congregational Files<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalcommons.acu.edu\/verticalfiles_findingaids\/1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">World Churches Files<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalcommons.acu.edu\/verticalfiles_findingaids\/4\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Subject Files<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018-2019 we improved the arrangement and order of these files by removing and cataloging many published tracts and pamphlets.\u00a0 After weeding non-Stone-Campbell-related material, many of the files were refoldered and the entire set was relabeled and an inventory created.\u00a0 With the publication of this finding aid, we now have online access to all of our vertical file sets within the Center for Restoration Studies collection, and all four sets are <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/specialcollections\/about\/forms\/#.Xh4xShdKiL8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">open to researchers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We solicit donations for these file sets.\u00a0 Ephemera of all kinds, promotional brochures, annual reports, photographs all contribute to our knowledge of the past.\u00a0 Contact Mac Ice at mac.ice@acu.edu for details on how you can preserve these materials.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A revised and updated Finding Aid for the Center for Restoration Studies Organizational File set is now available for browsing or download.
