Physical Location

COLLECTION STORED OFF-SITE AT SRLF. Advance notice required for access. Contact the UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center Library and Archive for paging information.

Immediate Source of Acquisition

Donated by the University of Notre Dame, May-July 2019.

Processing Information

The collection arrived in 68 Bankers boxes and 1 other box in May 2019. Many of the boxes were badly damaged, so the collection was rehoused in Paige boxes. Information that was written on the outside of the original boxes, including series names, was recorded in ASpace. The box numbers are the ones written on the original boxes. They were probably put on randomly for shipping purposes, with no inherent meaning, but, hey, we had to number them somehow. An additional 20 document boxes arrived in July.
