The website of the Episcopal Church Archives is now easier to navigate and is mobile-friendly. The site offers digital versions of the Journals of General Convention, from the first in 1785 to the 78th in 2015.
Digital versions of Constitution and Canons are available, as approved in the years 2000 through 2015. Older versions of Constitution and Canons are being prepared for the website.
White and Dykman, the annotated version of Constitution and Canons, is available in these forms:
- 1981 edition (1997 reprint, without supplements)
- 1991 Supplement (to the 1981 edition)
- 1989 Supplement (to the 1981 edition)
“The Resolves of Council are now current through 2016 with improved search functions,” Canonical Archivist and Director Mark J. Duffy wrote about the new website. “The Church Awakens has been updated, deepening the historical context with additional biographies and parishes, and incorporating knowledge and feedback shared with us by members of the community. Content has been added throughout the website in this major revision.”
