Sisters of Life gift (Dr. Joseph R. Stanton Human Life Issues Library and Resource Center)

Background

Collection acquired August 2021.

Physical Processing

House as appropriate.

What to Keep & Duplicate Copies

• General Sisters of Life books:  If Schlesinger or Harvard Library already has a copy of a book (print or electronic), do NOT add a 2nd copy. Mark as DUP (with a slip- Sisters of Life DUP) and when a Paige box is full of duplicates, give to Curator for review for donation, sale, etc.

• VOLCOM books:  Add all VOLCOM books to Schlesinger, even if Schlesinger (or Harvard) already owns a copy(s).   However, if the VOLCOM collection contains 2 copies, keep only 1 VOLCOM copy and set aside any dups. for Curator review. If there is more than one VOLCOM copy, add to collection the one with any inscriptions for context and provenance.

• Sisters of Life periodicals, including VOLCOM: If Schlesinger or Harvard Library already has a copy of an issue (print or electronic), do NOT add a 2nd copy; leave in a Paige box marked "Dupes" and give to Curator for review for donation, sale, etc. If the periodical is not on human life issues, leave in a Paige box marked "Not retaining" or consult with curator. If another Harvard library already owns several issues and we would only be adding a few, give to curator for donation to the Harvard library that could fill gaps.
