California’s Governor’s Mansion currently operates as a State Historic Park. Interpretive programming consists of guided tours, outreach programs and holiday events. All programming focuses predominantly on the gubernatorial families who resided in the home, and on the large collection of original artifacts extant within the Mansion.

  • The Historical Society of Pennsylvania, with the Balch Institute for Ethnic Studies Institutional Records, 1824-2005
    The Historical Society of Pennsylvania, with the Balch Institute for Ethnic Studies Institutional Records, 1824-2005 Abstract The Historical Society of Pennsylvania was established in 1824 by a group of young Philadelphians who sought to collect and preserve evidence of Pennsylvania’s past. Throughout its long history, the historical society stayed true to this mission, emerging as one of the nation’s largest and most prominent manuscript repositories as well as a leading historical and genealogical research center. One of the most notable events in the society’s history was its 2002 merger with the Balch Institute for Ethic Studies. The Balch was founded in 1971 with a trust established years earlier by Emily Balch and her sons. The organization was created to promote understanding and respect for America’s ethnic, racial, and immigrant diversity. Over the course of its thirty years of existence, the Balch strove to become the premiere museum and research center for scholarship on American immigrant and ethnic experiences. Today, these newly unified institutions constitute one of the leading national repositories of library and manuscript materials. The Institutional Archives of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, including the archives of the Balch Institute for Ethnic Studies, document the governance and activities of these two organizations throughout their respective institutional histories. The archives are arranged into two record groups and further divided into thirty-three series, with each series generally representing a different department or organizational function. The material is vast and varied and reflects the many activities of both the Historical Society and the Balch Institute, including library services, museum exhibits, conservation, administration, educational programming, publishing, special events, fundraising, and more.
