Archival Collections

Welcome to the Archives of St. Peter’s Seminary.

The Archives is responsible for the appraisal, acquisition, preservation and use of Seminary records of enduring value which pertain to the origin, history, growth and spirit of the Seminary as well as the records of individuals and organizations associated with the Seminary.

In October 2008, St. Peter’s Seminary initiated a process of transferring the archival collection to the lower level of the A.P. Mahoney Library which is a more conducive location to the preservation and security of our holdings.

At this time, the work of classifying and describing our holdings is still in progress. Once records have been processed, they may become available for research purposes.

Our current Seminary Archivist is Rev. Michael Prieur and he is assisted by Rev. Mr. Victor DeGagné.

The archival collection consists of:

1. Records of the Seminary that are of enduring historical, legal, fiscal and administrative value, particularly those that document the functions, policies and decisions of the Seminary.

2. Records of Seminary organizations, including the records of faculty, student clubs, alumni association and other groups, that document the life of the Seminary community.

3. Records of affiliated organizations that document their relationship to the Seminary.

4. Seminary publications, newsletters, reports, programs, flyers, calendars, student publications, Alumni Bulletins, etc.

5. Artifacts relating to the history of the Seminary, of individuals connected to the Seminary, and liturgical and religious items.
