Episcopal student chaplaincy established in 1945 as the Episcopal Student Foundation to minister to University of Michigan students. The activities of the ministry were centered in Canterbury House (various locations). The Canterbury House ministry functioned both as a coffee house and as a performance hall for folk and jazz artists. The record group divides into three series. History and background materials include histories, promotional materials, and newspaper articles. The Episcopal Student Foundation Board of Trustees series consists of minutes, financial records, correspondence, and files relating to building facilities. The Canterbury series documents non-administrative activities, including staffing, chaplain activities, and programs and performances sponsored. This series also includes photographs, sound recordings, and files relating to the Institute of Public Theology and the conferences sponsored by it.

The Canterbury House records contain the records of the Episcopal Student Foundation and the Canterbury House, the Episcopal Campus Church at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The records are divided into four series, History and Background Materials, Episcopal Student Foundation Board of Trustees, Staff, and Canterbury.

Episcopal Student Foundation Board of Trustees, 1945-2005

The Episcopal Student Foundation Board of Trustees (ESF Board) series, (1.7 linear feet) covers the administrative business of the Canterbury House and contains five sub-series. The Foundational sub-series contains the mission statement, by-laws, and state documents for the ESF Board. Board Meetings contains lists of board members, agendas, minutes, reports, and all other documents associated with meetings of the ESF Board arranged by fiscal year from 1945 until 2005. Financial documents are arranged by the traditional fiscal year until the end of 1992 when the ESF discovered a canon in the Episcopal Church dictating that the fiscal year was to be the calendar year. After that point, documents are arranged by calendar year. Correspondence is organized alphabetically by subject, when applicable, and correspondent. Finally, the Buildings sub-series contains folders organized chronologically by property of the real estate and buildings owned by the ESF Board and Canterbury House.
