98 2. A simple way of copying SIMPLE DO-IT-YOURSELF MICROFILMING documents A suggestion for IAMS members At the U.S.A. African Studies Association meeting in Washington in 1982, Dr. Thomas Q. Reefe of the University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill) gave a paper on DIY microfilming using the kind of equipment most of us carry around on journeys anyway. The idea rang a bell with the DAB Core Group - we are in principle in favour of local church archives and above all against unique documents being "collected" by Western libraries and archives. A simple way of copying documents, which can even function where there is no elec- tricity supply, sounds very attractive to us. Everyone can be helped by it. There is a much better chance for rare manuscripts to survive if they exist in more than one copy. Our Western institutions, where . teaching and writing about Third World Churches can easily lose contact with reality, could gain an opportunity to build up documentation on local churches, while respecting the local churches' sound instinct that their documentation should remain in their own hands. Hence our summary of Dr. Reefe's suggestions in this number of Mission Studies. 1.
