2.		Georgetown University Archives	The Georgetown University Archives attempts to acquire, preserve, and provide access to records that document the history and development of the university and its constituent parts. Georgetown was among the first American colleges to establish a repository for historical records. The archives was established by resolution of the Board of Directors as early as 1816, and an officially designated archivist has been in place since 1898; this longevity has facilitated the development of an unusually rich archival collection dating from 1786--even before the founding in 1789--to the present. The official university records have been enriched by gifts of papers, photographs, and memorabilia from private individuals that do much to flesh out the history of the university. Because of its age, because it is a Jesuit institution, and because it was the first Catholic foundation for higher education in the United States, Georgetown has been studied from various points of view by a series of educational historians. Also, certain groups of records have direct importance for research beyond the scope of educational history. These would include the extensive and detailed financial records of the university, dating back to the eighteenth century; scientific records of the University Observatory and its astronomical activities, 1843-1972; records of the Kennedy Institute of Ethics, and particularly of its Center for Bioethics; the audio tapes and transcriptions of the more than 1,000 programs produced by the Georgetown University Radio/TV Forum; the unusually good documentation of sports education and teams, also dating from as far back as the eighteenth century; and the extensive archives photographic collections, which document university and community life from the 1850s to the present. All published documents housed in the University Archives are open for use. Unpublished documents are governed by the following use restrictions: unpublished material dating from 1971 and later may only be consulted with the permission of the office which created it; unpublished material dating from 1970 or before may be used with the permission of the Archivist or the creating office, unless otherwise restricted.
