About the PACSCL Survey

The Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries (PACSCL) Consortial Survey Initiative is a 30-month project funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to assess backlogged archival collections in 22 Philadelphia area institutions. The results of the survey will be used to determine priorities for collections work within individual institutions and across the consortium, as well as to improve intellectual access to the surveyed collections.

For more information about the PACSCL Survey, see the project website.
