Miscellaneous Records, 1837-1985
The Miscellaneous Records series, despite its title, includes some very significant documentation of the founding and development of the University Library. The series is organized into three subseries:1937-1948, 1866-1985, and Correspondence Card Index.
1837-1948
The Miscellaneous Records, 1837-1948 subseries is comprised of a body of material transferred to the archives on an item or folder basis. The unusual character of the transfer reflects upon the peculiar worth attached to many of the records. This small subseries contains miscellaneous records from the period 1837 to 1948. A run of faculty circulation records from the period 1864 to 1904 (boxes 70-71) offers a window onto the changing research interests of various faculty members as the university was developing into a major research institution. Also included in this series are the files of correspondence between University President Harry B. Hutchins and Library Director Theodore Wesley Koch from 1910 to 1920 which document decisions made about the library's budget, acquisitions, and administrative policies (box 69).
