Church Archives, but with the condition that his diaries not be read until 25 years after his death. However, shortly after Arrington's death, a general authority asked Arrington's daughter, Susan Madsen, to excise 40 entries from her father's diary; Arrington's family concluded church staff had read his journals before the request time had elapsed and without proper permission. George Daines, the Arrington family attorney, explained that the family had grounds to take legal action against the LDS Church, and the negotiations soon ended with the church accepting the Arrington family's terms.

Not all twelve authors completed their projects, but many books that started from the History Division project were later published through other publishers. 352:"As a result of yesterday's meeting with the First Presidency I have been thinking and praying about my calling as Church Historian. This was also prompted by the necessity of writing an article appraising President Joseph Fielding Smith as a historian. On the one hand, I am the Church Historian and must seek to build testimonies, spread the word, build the Kingdom. On the other hand, I am called to be a historian, which means that I must earn the respect of professional historians—what I write must be craftsmanlike, credible, and of good quality.
