Irish Centre of Pittsburgh Records, AIS.1977.25, Archives & Special Collections, University of Pittsburgh Library System
The Irish Centre of Pittsburgh was developed in 1966 by Rev. Dr. Patrick McCarthy, a resident at St. Paul's Cathedral and a professor of International Affairs at Duquesne University. The Centre's purpose is to have a place where Irish people living in Pittsburgh can meet and engage with others in cultural, educational, social, and recreational activities. Most of its members are from Irish ancestry and are interested in the promotion of Irish folklore, arts, and customs.
This collection includes two reels of microfilmed records. Reel 1 consists of microfilmed records from the centre including a guest book with signatures and addresses, and pamphlets, 1966-1977. Reel 2 consists of a scrapbook containing newsclippings, photos, and newsletters from 1966-1971, 1975-1977. This collection was combined from AIS 77:25a and AIS 77:25b into AIS 77:25 in July 2003.
