The Dutch Reformed Church was among the earliest established in what became the United States. Over 400 years the church merged and changed and is currently known as the Reformed Church of America. The RCA Archives preserves the enduring memory of the church. Documents, videos, sound recordings, and computer data are included among the valuable permanent records of the RCA.

Russell L. Gasero is the long-time archivist for the Reformed Church of America Archives, located in the Gardner A. Sage Library of New Brunswick Theological Seminary. He is the author of Historical Directory of the Reformed Church in America, 1628-2000.
