Benzinger Library (East Quadrangle) Files
The Benzinger Library Files series covers the years 1954 to 1976 and is a part of the Residence Hall Libraries record group. To maintain the provenance of the materials, a separate series has been established here. The series contains budgets, correspondence, library reports, memos, minutes, plans and projects dealing with the library's operations. The "Budgets" provide detailed statistics on the financial information of the library. The "Correspondence" and "Memoranda" folders comprise the largest portion in this series (3 folders) and document the day-to-day activities of the library. The "Minutes" record the important meetings held by the Library Committee. The "Plans" and "Operation Ransom" folders contain materials regarding the basement renovation project undertaken in the 1950s and 1960s. Materials in these folders include blueprints, guest lists, dedications and two black and white photographs. "Poems and Plays" are mostly written by the students of the East Quadrangle Residence Hall. They are a reflection of the colorful campus student life.
