Collection Overview
Collection Description & Creator Information
- Arrangement
Processing archivists intellectually organized the collection into two series based on their creation and ownership history: Publisher Files and Personal Papers. Publisher files are largely organized and titled by author name and book title. Materials in the Personal Papers series were roughly sorted by genre/type and subject, and much of this series remains arranged in the order in which the materials were received.
Collection History

Personal papers and publisher files were arranged and described by Melody Edwards '15 in 2015 and continued by Ellen Williams in 2017. Additional arrangement of personal papers by Aaron Pickett, assisted by student workers, in 2017 or earlier. Further processing and finding aid completed by Lauren C.
