Correspondence – Dean Fagg, 1940 - 1944

Effie Keith's records fill one half-size box and span the years 1933-2004. The majority of the materials come from 1941-1944, during her tenure as Acting University Librarian. The materials include correspondence, personnel files, periodical clippings, and some inventories and reports.

The records begin with some chronologically arranged biographical material, including personnel files, obituary notices, and posthumous tributes. The bulk of the material is in the form of correspondence between Keith and various library personnel, professors, and book dealers. Those with whom Keith exchanged significant correspondence have been given their own folders, including correspondence regarding the Franz Boas Collection, the Technological Institute library, and a collector of political cartoons. Also included is a folder of general correspondence.

A folder containing Keith's publications includes "A Selected Bibliography of Library Architecture: 1915-1930."
