The Joint Archives of Holland administers Hope College's
records retention program overseeing transfer, storage, preservation,
reference use of inactive records, and timely destruction of outdated
records.
The large collection of oral histories housed at the
Joint Archives of Holland was initiated in 1977 with the help of
Dr. Elton Bruins of Hope College and continued as a summer project
until 2003. Along the way, many other interviews have also been recorded
as opportunities arose. Click
