*SCA Seeks Contributions for*

*Special Collection at UC Riverside Libraries
*

*
*

The SCA is pleased to announce that the University of California Riverside
Libraries will be opening a permanent Society for Creative Anachronism
Special Collection and Archive in 2011. The materials in this collection
will include a variety of publications and other media both by and about the
Society since the group’s inception. (If you are interested in viewing UCR’s
other collections, please visit their website at
http://library.ucr.edu/?view=collections/spcol.)


>From the Stock Clerk’s office, the SCA will be supplying copies of *The
Compleat Anachronist*, available copies of *Tournaments Illuminated*,
officer handbooks, and other materials, but as this is but a percentage of
materials ever published, the SCA needs contributions from individuals.
Specifically, members are being asked to provide back issues of *Tournaments
Illuminated *(please check with Countess Leonora, below, for the issue
numbers needed), arts and sciences publications, kingdom histories, relevant
theses, local and kingdom newsletters, photographs, event publications,
videos, newspaper clippings (must include newspaper name, city and date),
copies of kingdom law (past and present), personal SCA diaries, music, books
and any other publications that chronicle the history and activities of the
Society. Please note that this collection is for media *only* and will not
include any artifacts (i.e. no costumes, armor or other physical items).

If you have publications or media you would like to contribute, please
contact the SCA Liaison to the UCR Libraries, Countess Leonora Morgana
(Stacie Tibbetts) at collections at sca.org or at 714-544-8490 before 8pm PST.
(The University Libraries are unable to accept direct donations on behalf of
the Society, and sending them materials directly could result in their
loss.)


If you are contributing an item that has been privately produced, you will
need to include a gift donation form, which can be found at *
http://library.ucr.edu/?view=collections/spcol/donations.html*. (This isn’t
necessary if you are donating your copy of a Society publication.) All
personal submissions will be juried to ensure that the materials are
representative of the Society and to avoid supplying them with duplicates.

Please be aware that the existing SCA archives will not, as a whole, be part
of this donation (although select materials, such as governing documents,
may be included). Master Aldred von Lechsend aus Froschheim (Charles
Alderson), the Society Archivist, will continue to gladly accept
contributions and be available for reference questions. He may be reached at
archivist at sca.org.
