Mennonite Board of Missions
Information Services
Collected Records
3 Boxes (1 Long Green, 2
Large)
Introduction
These materials include pamphlets,
booklets and other historical materials collected by the archivist,
1958-93. They came from vertical files
of Mennonite Historical Library and from a small collections file of
the
Archives of the Mennonite
Church.
They need to be sorted out and
listed. The usefulness of these
materials is in their broad spectrum of materials having to do with the
Mission
Board. While some is historical, a lot
is also distributed correspondence, reports and minutes.
