Description
Summary:We may be drowning in paper. And recycling the flood may save a lot of trees. But first let's selectively cull out for preservation the documents on which future analyses can be based. So pleads the author in this paper she presented to the Association of the Professors of Mission at Dubuque, Iowa, last June.

But in the end, solutions depend on how much we care — not only about our own history, but also the research which emerging scholars of the younger churches are already undertaking.
