Religion

Princeton Theological Seminary has strong collections of materials on the history of religion. Some of the microform material is uncataloged, and the researcher is advised to consult the reference staff at PTS. Of particular note are several microfilm sets on missions & missionaries:

• IMC/CBMS Archives (International Missionary Council/Conference of British Missionary Societies)
• Presbyterian Church of England Foreign Missions Archives 1847-1950
• Christianity and the Encounter with World Religions (ATLA)
• Church Missionary Society Archive
