Committee on Care of Records

• North Carolina Yearly Meeting Archives, Quaker records, Quaker history, Friends' history, Meeting Minutes

The NCYM Committee on the Care of Yearly Meeting Records encourages all Meetings to deposit minutes, records, and all officail documents for safekeeping in the Friends Historical Collection in the Guilford College Library.  The committee serves in an advisory capacity to the Librarian of the Friends Historical Collection regarding the NCYM Archives.

Meetings can see which records are already kept in the Friends Historical Collection by searching the database of Quaker Meeting Records.  Contact the Friends Historical Collection Librarian and Archivist if you have questions about your Meeting's records.

Meetings are encouraged to deposit monthly meeting minutes, ministry and counsel minutes, and membership records regularly.  See the policy and guidelines for recommended procedures for keeping your records and information about access, use, reproduction, and retention.

See the Friends Historical Collection website for fuller information about the history of North Carolina Yearly Meeting and its meetings, library resources about Friends (both in North Carolina and beyond), and researching Quaker records.
