One of our goals in holding the records of an organization is to have a complete run of its publications, particularly its newsletters. In the past the library ideally held two copies: one, an archival copy, housed in the manuscript department (filed by organization name in a MFD or Master File Drawer or with the collection), and one, for general use, in the periodical department. With the transition to a closed stack environment in 2005 and thFe the end of the backlog project in 2013, newsletters of "our" organizations are cataloged and housed in the Published and Printed Materials Department.

- While we are no longer adding materials to Pr-4: Women's Newsletter and Periodical Collection, this finding aid may be particularly useful since it lists a broad range of titles. (http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:RAD. SCHL:sch00376). Search the finding aid for your title and if other issues are already listed, let Johanna know. She can help you pull those issues to give to the serials cataloger for cataloging, and will update the Pr-4 finding aid.
