Immediate source of acquisition:

The early records and papers of the Canberra Choral Society were received from two separate sources during the 1960s. The original items in MS 1519 (Series 1-4) were deposited officially by the Society in September 1965 and refer to the period 1960 to 1964. Additional records, correspondence and official minutes for 1962-1965 (Series 5-6) were received from the Honorary Secretary in February 1968 and were originally deposited at a separate location (MS 2040). As they are from the same organisation, and cover the same period as the earlier deposit, it is unclear why they were not included with the donation received in 1965. Close examination suggests, however, that the earlier deposit was of the papers held by the President and the later of those held by the Secretary. During work on developing a detailed guide to the papers of the Canberra Choral Society in June 1998, and in preparation for further deposits of records of the Society for the period 1965 on, these two closely related collections were consolidated at MS 1519. As there is no significant duplication of correspondence, it was felt that the two collections should be brought together to form a single, complete record of the activities of the Society during that period
