Is the Catalogue an accession list? The catalogue was maintained by the co-secretaries of ARCIC-I, and protocol numbers were generally assigned in chronological order by accession date. The original publication date of documents does not affect their protocol numbers. The catalogue is essentially complete as an accession list, but documents discovered during the development of IARCCUM.org were inserted retroactively into the chronological sequence. These documents do not have ARCIC protocol numbers.

What are supplemental files? Although most documents received a protocol number, some were deemed “supplemental” (designated here as “ARCIC SF”), although the determination as to what is supplemental is not consistent. There are a few documents in the ARCIC-I fonds that were not given a protocol number or a supplemental file number by the co-secretaries. The archivist has not assigned ARCIC SF protocol numbers to these documents. Instead, these bear a Doc number in place of the protocol.

Is the catalogue available sorted by category? Yes, the complete ARCIC-I fonds is sorted by document type. A future “thematic index” is also planned.

NOTE: For a brief period before its first meeting, ARCIC was known as the Anglican-Roman Catholic Permanent Joint Commission and it is for this reason that the papers prepared for the first meeting, nos. 1-6, have the protocol ‘ARCPJC’. This was changed at the first meeting of ARCIC because it caused confusion with the Joint Preparatory Commission, ARCJPC.
