MSRC Forms and Policies
Manuscript Division
The Moorland-Spingarn Research Center’s Manuscript Division (MSS) provides request forms to ensure the responsible and authorized use of its collections in research, teaching, and publication. These forms are part of a broader commitment to aligning access with archival standards, legal requirements, and preservation best practices. By following these procedures, researchers help safeguard the physical condition, intellectual value, and long-term availability of the materials for future scholarship.
Each form corresponds to a specific type of use within the Manuscript Division and outlines the relevant policies, required permissions, and submission process. Careful review of these policies before submitting a request helps ensure that all projects meet MSRC requirements and proceed without unnecessary delays. The links below lead to the appropriate form for each category of use.
Before submitting a form or visiting the collection in person, please review our terms of use:
