Finding Aids Index updated June 2021
Finding aids have been created for each
collection that is housed on the archives floor of the
PCGS Library. These
finding aids, listing the contents of each collection,
help the researcher find information without having
to go through a
collection paper by paper. Each page, book, or
item in the collection is given a folder and/or item number. The collections are open
to researchers. We will be happy to make copies
for you.
Please email us your request with the following information: collection name, folder number, item number.
We will not copy complete collections.
