A little more explanation about which materials have been moved into storage, and why. These are minutes of judicatories in the former Presbyterian Church in the United States (PCUS), which merged in 1983 with the UPCUSA to form today's PCUSA (are you confused yet?). Because these units are no longer active, there are no new records being added to the collection, making them prime candidates for removal from the open stacks into secure storage.
We have left the minutes of the Synod of Virginia in place, along with minutes of its component presbyteries, because these are used for historical research. Records of the other PCUS synods and presbyteries, and of the PCUS Women of the Church regional units, are seldom used and have been moved. For a complete list of the records now in storage, click HERE.
This move has freed 78 shelves of space on the overcrowded Second Level West! Redistribution of the materials on that floor by our hard-working Circ staff is now under way.
