  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Parochial Registers
The Church prescribes that in her parochial registers all persons be designated not only by name, but likewise by parentage and parish; that the office, e.g.
All entries in parochial registers are to be made in Latin and by the pastor, even though he may not have officiated.
Such proof would naturally be sought in the parish; parochial registers consequently should record baptisms, marriages, etc. of parishioners, though the event chronicled take place elsewhere.

 Services for professionals | Parochial Registers and Records Measure
The Parochial Registers and Records Measure 1978 passed by the General Synod of the Church of England was a step taken to ensure the long term care and preservation of and access to parish records.
It was a response to the awareness of the interest and use of parish records in historical research, recognition that church employees did not necessarily have the skills or appropriate storage conditions to care for parish records, and the development of archival services in the country.
However, with the network of records offices that subsequently were established throughout the country and the Local Government (Records) Act 1962 which allowed local authority record offices to acquire and care for records of local significance it was an aim of the 1978 measure to draw upon these resources.

 Private & Parochial School Nurses
Registered nurses who work in private and parochial schools, practice in a unique setting, often isolated from other medical professionals.  To meet their needs, a Special Interest Group (SIG) for Private and Parochial School Nurses (PPSN) was formed in 1994. 
Workshops for private and/or parochial school nurses are offered at the annual conference and articles are offered in the NASN Newsletter published bi-monthly.  The NASN PPSN electronic Discussion List enables members of this group to network with their colleagues throughout the year.
To become a member of this SIG, simply check the appropriate line item under "Area of Practice" on the NASN membership application or contact NASN to update our records.

 Violet Books: The 11th Edition
The Britanica had been inspired by a European (really a French) standard for such books, so that it was far more than a parochial encyclopedia for England & America.
Also the position of women was diminished — someone decided the overwhelming influence of wives (& especially of mistresses) even in cases when queens outranked their kings, should be altered, understated, or deleted.
Those "impartial" deletions & revisions amounted to a completely new Encyclopedia of the Bowlderized, Catholicized, Parochialized, de-Feminized, Politicized, tiny brain-sized — & the 14th Edition rightly horrified academicians who'd previously regarded it as a great feather in their hats to have their historical assessments chosen for the Britanica.
