See sub sub series RG 6 14.5.3 The Quill for History/Bio information.
The duplicates retained were chosen to provide an illustration of the changing content and format of the Quill from 1930-1975. They are primarliy for display purposes, as microfilm copies are available for researchers. The original copies of the Quill provide an archival record, but these may be used only under most unusal circumstances. Additional duplicates were culled.
Custodial History
See sub sub series RG 6 14.5.3 The Quill for Custodial history.

The unQuill or Daily Quill (2000) does not constitute part of the archival record of the Quill, as it was published without the authority of the Students' Union or the BUSU Communications Board.

During this time, the Quill staff published the unQuill and the Daily Quill.
