Collection History
- Appraisal
In 2007, duplicate materials and letters of recommendation written by Hirschman were separated from this collection and destroyed. Publications were removed to be cataloged separately at the Pliny Fisk Library of Economics and Finance at Princeton University. A file of information about Luis E. Nieto Arteta was separated from the October 2009 accession and destroyed.
Twenty-five diskettes were removed from the materials received in the July 2012 accession. These diskettes duplicated material in Hirschman's paper collections and in at least one case contained viruses. No materials were removed from the 2018 donation.
- Sponsorship:
These papers were processed with the generous support of the National Historical Publications and Records Commission and the John Foster and Janet Avery Dulles Fund.
- Processing Information
This collection was processed by Adriane Hanson, Christopher Shannon, and Karen Okigbo in 2006-2007. Finding aid written by Adriane Hanson in April 2006. Finding aid revised by Adriane Hanson in October 2007. The January 2008 and January 2010 accessions were integrated into the collection and the finding aid was updated accordingly. The July 2012 accession was added to the collection as Series 6: July 2012 Accession. A folder list was created for this series and the finding aid was updated at this time. Materials in the 2018 donations were added by Rachel Van Unen.
