How Do I Cite Archival Resources?

Citing Your Research

It is important to cite primary source materials as completely as possible in order for researchers to be able to find the item again. However, citing archival materials can be complicated. Include as much of the following information as possible:

  • author (if applicable)
  • title of item (or description)
  • date of the item
  • collection
  • box number and file name
  • repository name (Anderson University and Church of God Archives, Nicholson Library, Anderson, IN)

Some examples:
