Professional Materials
The Professional Materials series is divided into six sub-series: Publications/Writings, Teaching Materials, Correspondence, Conferences, Organizations, and Subject/Research Files.
The Publications/Writings sub-series includes both writing materials written by Eleanor Leacock as well as writings sent to Eleanor for review or annotation. To keep original order, any correspondence, notes, or drafts for the works are kept together. Materials are arranged topically for Leacock's publications, and alphabetically by author's name for publications not written by Leacock. Some of the works in this series are based on, or grew out of work Leacock did for her studies, and comparison to those series is suggested. Additionally, papers written for conferences can be found in the Conferences sub-series. There may also be files with materials from projects that were left unfinished by Leacock, such as the Harris materials.
The Teaching Materials sub-series includes the resources from Eleanor Leacock's teaching career, mostly from her time at the City College of New York (CUNY). Materials include lecture notes, department memos and reports, correspondence, and Leacock's CV. Items are arranged topically.
The Correspondence sub-series includes general and professional correspondence and are arranged alphabetically by sender last name. A majority of this correspondence is from professional connections, and some may also include personal. Correspondence connected with specific materials or family members has not been moved from other series in order to preserve the context of that correspondence. Therefore, the researcher is recommended to search the collection for other areas where correspondence may appear.
The Conferences sub-series includes symposium and conference notes, papers and research materials for conferences either Leacock attended or presented at. Materials are arranged alphabetically by conference name. This sub-series is closed linked to the Organizations and Publications sub-series and should be reviewed together.
The Organizations sub-series includes newsletters, memos, correspondence, meeting minutes, and articles from topical organizations. This sub-series is closely related to both the Conferences and Publications sub-series and there may be some overlap between them. Notable organizations include the Council for Marxist Anthropology, the American Anthropological Association, Anthropologists for Radical and Political Action (ARPA), Fight Back, and the International Movement of Radical Anthropologists (IMRA). Materials are arranged alphabetically by organization name.
The Subject/Research Files sub-series includes research materials, notes, topical files, correspondence, papers and articles on various subjects or areas of research. These files were the least organized of the collection when the materials were donated and did not include much description of their purpose. It is believed that a large portion relates to projects Leacock was either working on or intended to work on and so may be incomplete in their information. Materials are arranged alphabetically by topic.
