Personnel Resolutions, 1973 - 1983

The papers of the Board of Trustees consist of by-laws, minutes (and other materials relating to its monthly meetings), correspondence, information on individual trustees, and other reports and documents.

The official board minutes were bound from 1888 to 1975 (59 volumes); these bound volumes are in the 3rd floor safe. Bound copies of the official minutes from 1979 to 1988 are also located in the 3rd floor safe. Unbound minutes, along with agendas, resolutions, etc…, from 1943 to 1993 have been transferred from the director’s office to the 3rd floor safe.

Correspondence with members of the Board of Trustees is located in the 3rd floor safe from 1917 to 1949. Correspondence with members of the Board of Trustees is also located in the director’s office from the 1970s to the 2000s. An inventory of this correspondence is not included in this finding aid.

Additional series include various copies of the by-laws (probably incomplete), individual biographies of individual trustees from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s (mostly), including the papers of Samuel L. Hamilton, notes relating to committee work from the very earliest years, and other miscellaneous information.
