The BAP’s long anticipated archiving project is underway! Thanks to the investment of the board of directors, meaningful first steps have been taken toward preserving the historic publications of the General Conference for the benefit of future generations.
Special thanks to Isaac Overman (pictured), who spent four weeks (May 18 – June 12) at the GC offices to launch the project. The scope of Isaac’s work included scanning fragile historical publications, organizing files, and creating preservation-quality and access-oriented digital copies. In total, Isaac scanned over 30,000 pages spanning the first seventy years of The Hope of Israel/Bible Advocate from 1863 to 1932.
The project has just begun, but we are pleased with this excellent start.
