Shelly’s papers contain very few personal or family materials. There are no photographs other than a few of Shelly in programs from events where he was a speaker. A handful of his notes and papers from college and graduate school remain. In addition to his sermon outlines and files from work with the Board of Education and Publication, Shelly compiled an extensive set of subject files on topics of interest to him. Most of the files contain only an article or clipping or two. A few have notes he compiled on these subjects from various sources. He used these files in both his teaching and preaching. Almost no materials (lecture notes or syllabi) relate to his classroom teaching at Bluffton College. However, some of his other activities at Bluffton are well documented, including arranging for field trips and field work for students, planning “special weeks” activities, and other correspondence for special events or programs.
