The Records of NUSAC include the founding documents of the Council, minutes of meetings of the Interim Non-Academic Staff Committee, which served as the precursor of NUSAC, and a nearly complete set of minutes of meetings of the Council (1976 through 1978 are lacking).

Taylor (1972-1973), who was instrumental in efforts which resulted in the initial establishment of NUSAC. There follow subject files, which occupy one and one-half boxes and include considerable correspondence, as well.
