Administrative Information

ABOUT THE COLLECTION  
Acquisition: The collection was donated in 1977 by James N. Williams and a donation agreement was signed at the time.
Processing information: The collection was inventoried by Michael Kohl, assistant librarian at Rhode Island College Special Collections, in 1977. The collection was rehoused, described, and the finding aid converted to current archival standards by Erica Florenz, Special Collections Assistant, under the supervision of Veronica Denison, Digital Archivist and Special Collections Librarian, in 2022. At that time, materials related to Dorothy Hunt’s records of the Mayor’s Recreation Advisory Committee were separated from the collection and made into their own collection.
