Processing Information:
The basis of the collection came from over 65 record boxes of negatives, slides, contact sheets, and prints deposited with the archives by Public Relations between 1986 and 2007.
This collection was processed during the summer of 2011 by Alicia Carman under the direction of College Archivist Jaime M. Bradley, in a joint labor sharing project with the Public Relations Office. Alicia Carman completed this finding aid during Fall Term 2011.
Processing included the removal of duplicates, housing in acid free folders, and the researching of dates, places, photographers and events for as many images as possible. Because this collection was already in chronological order, it was maintained in this way and not divided into artificial subject headings (which would have been necessary in order to integrate these materials into the existing general BC Photographic Archives, which consists primarily of News Bureau prints and images prior to 1973), in order to maintain the original order and integrity of the records and assist with the locating of images. Buildings and Grounds, a separate collection from the same PR deposits, was added to this guide in October 2012 in order to facilitate ease of locating materials.
The finding aid was updated in April 2014 by Lori Myers-Steele, Project Archivist.
