THE BLACK ARCHIVES HISTORY AND RESEARCH FOUNDATION OF SOUTH FL, INC Joseph Caleb Building 5400 NW 22 nd Avenue Building C Suite 101 Miami, Florida 33142 (305) 636-2390 Date Started: October 8, 2003 PAPERS PROCESSED Collection Title: Date Span: Religion Collection Varied Inclusive Subjects: These records are a collection of information on religion in Miami. This collection was organized into several parts on one subject. We decided to group the collection into subgroups as part of a larger collection. This collection contains pictures, programs, certificates, awards, newspaper articles, correspondences, reports, and other documents. Brief description of processing procedure: The records in this collection were located in the Black Archives ready reference room. After a preliminary survey was conducted, it was discovered that the records the Religion Collection were in no particular order, only kept in two large binder folders. To process the collection, the information was placed into categories, and then transferred into acid-free file folders. After being appropriately labeled, the folders were organized in alphabetical order and placed in an acid-free box. A content listing was made, and the files were inputted into the collections database. Collection appropriate labels were attached, and the boxes were stored in the collection room. This collection was processed at the file folder level and is now categorized multiple series. 1
Religion Collection Continued *** Archivist Note: These records were stored in the collections room, and since this is a community archives, it will be an ongoing collection. The collection includes several photographs, articles, historic documents and manuscripts of different religious groups and churches. Since this is a community archives, the collection will continue to grow as more information is made available to the archives. Upon reviewing the collection, I made the decision to create one large topic and many subtopics. This collection s is placed in sub-series listed by church. Number of Boxes: 5 Location: Collection Room Ready Reference Section Size: 1.5 linear ft. & 2 cubic ft.
