Collection History

Custodial History

The initial donation to the New York Public Library consisted of 10 volumes of canvas-backed post-bound original documents and clippings pasted on paper that were numbered starting with 1 for each year. NYPL removed the originals from the post-bindings, and pasted them into scrapbooks. This process increased the number of volumes and split materials that were originally described as a single volume. Volumes were renumbered with a combination of volume and letter designations (for example, 595A and 595B).

Other Finding Aids

The ACLU Card Index (1917-1946) lists materials in this collection first chronologically and then by subject or name (original index cards are now located in AC123, Library Records). Please use the linked Card Index Subjects list and Names list (individuals are found under the heading "people" in the index) to identify relevant index terms and the years in which they appear. The cards provide reel (r), volume, and page numbers for each subject. This index has several limitations. Names are not indexed exhaustively, and material from 1946-1950 is not included. To gain access to these years, please use the Reel Contents and Series lists.
