Collection Overview
Collection Description & Creator Information
- Arrangement
Arranged numerically by filing group. Within each filing group, materials are arranged alphabetically by subject or author. The filing groups preserve the original order of the papers, which were arranged in several alphabetical groups by Viner, although the purpose for the different groups is not readily apparent. Filing group 3 is not in alphabetical order, but is instead left in the order in which it was received to preserve context. The last group, General, was created by the archivists from material found throughout the collection that was similar to the papers already located in this series.

For instances beyond Fair Use, any copyright vested in the donor has passed to The Trustees of Princeton University and researchers do not need to obtain permission, complete any forms, or receive a letter to move forward with use of donor-created materials within the collection.

In these instances, it is the responsibility of the researcher to determine whether any permissions related to copyright, privacy, publicity, or any other rights are necessary for their intended use of the Library's materials, and to obtain all required permissions from any existing rights holders, if they have not already done so. Princeton University Library's Special Collections does not charge any permission or use fees for the publication of images of materials from our collections.
