The McManus papers arrived in four distinct deposits with only the first being arranged and described to the folder level. The first deposit includes the Jurist, canon law and personal material. The first series spans McManus' editorial work with the Jurist, 1956-1985, and contains various articles as well as general correspondence relating to articles and the journal's publication. The canon law materials are separated into six series: National Council of Catholic Bishop's Committee on the Liturgy, correspondence and reports, 1951(1967-1984)1984; Canon Law Society of America, correspondence and conference materials of the U.S. society and some pieces from various foreign societies, 1961 (1966-1990) 1990; the publication Acta Apostolicae Sedies, 1967-1970; Department of Canon Law/CUA, records reflecting McManus as professor and scholar in canon law, 1961-1995; files on various liturgical and canon law topics, including the Orthodox-Catholic Consultation and the International Commission on English in the Liturgy, 1958-1996; and miscellaneous USCC/NCCB material, including the Committee on Research and Practices, a 1967 management study, and numerous press releases, 1966-1970. Finally, there are personal papers with correspondence, articles, speeches, publications, course outlines and exams, and general notes and clippings.
