Reference Information Papers (RIP)
Reference Information Papers (RIP) are thematic finding aids compiled by staff archivists, which aim to guide researchers to OSA's archival materials on a given topic. RIPs are cross-sectional digests of the holdings and typically cover several countries. Issues are published irregularly, and always reflect the status quo of the holdings. The catalog entries specify the fonds reference, date span, approximate quantity, and, occasionally, the medium of the records.
