Does HDS have the capacity for accepting/accessioning church materials, as well as ministers' papers?

Thanks for asking about donating Unitarian Universalist congregational records!

The Harvard Divinity School Library collects non-active records related to the Unitarian Universalist tradition, as well as the records of other religious groups, organizations, and people, including HDS faculty papers.

For more information about the library's collecting guidelines and about preparing your materials for donation, review our downloadable PDF guide to donating materials.

We will also consider donations of books, but we are not able to provide appraisals. To learn more about rare books in general, see the website Your Old Books.  

If you wish to donate materials to this library, please contact HDS Library Collection Services staff.
