System of arrangement

A file classification scheme was established by the Office of the General Council and the Society's Archives in the 1950's and 1960's, however it was not maintained in subsequent years. In the 2000's, files were re-arranged by Fr. David Warren to take into account newer files and the changes in the Society's structure. The current arrangement is an amalgamation of these two. Original files lists are available.
