National Archives Project for Women Religious Launches New Website
The National Archives Project for Women Religious (NAPWR) is now live online with its website napwr.org.
NAPWR is a consortium of repositories working to house, preserve, and make accessible the archival collections and histories of women religious congregations in the United States. This collaboration provides a coordinated response to assist congregations in planning for their archives, amplifies the message of the urgent need to protect these collections, and increases access by digitally linking repositories.
The NAPWR website includes information about the project, its participating repositories, resources for congregations, and contact information for congregations that would like to request information and/or assistance with archive planning.
NAPWR is grateful to the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation for the generous funding that is supporting this initiative.
