Note on file organization and description: The folders and files displayed below are in alphabetical order. The American Library Association Archives uses different strategies to arrange and describe digital files, including creating top-level folders to reflect broad categories, creating folders to reflect the physical arrangement of scanned materials, and retaining the original groupings as received. Digital file and subfolder names are typically unchanged to retain their original context and may have nondescriptive titles. Some files may be scans of physical originals held at the American Library Association Archives. Please contact an archivist at ala-archives@library.illinois.edu for assistance.
