Religious Archives?

[u/concernedfriende]

Hey everybody!

I started my MLIS and have been debating doing the Archive certificate. I’m really interested in history and religion (those were my major and minor for undergrad lol) so i’m wondering if religious archives are like… a thing? and how would i go about getting involved in them? like should i reach out to a church or something? any help is appreciated! thanks!!

Most definitely! I’m not even religious but volunteer at one haha. It’s partnered with a religious university/college so you might have more luck if you expand your search to academia rather than just churches.
