The fourth series contains documents received from either the FBO or the Office of the Historian. Spanning 1953 to 1980, these files primarily include correspondence and memos, as well as the meeting minutes of the FBO's advisory architects. Established in 1953 as the Architectural Advisory Committee (AAC), the AAC was renamed the Architectural Advisory Panel (AAP) in 1957; in the late 1970's, the AAP was briefly known as the Foreign Buildings Architectural Consultants but is currently known as the Architectural Advisory Board (AAB). Folders are sorted chronologically, keeping in accordance with Loeffler's original organization system. These records provide invaluable insight into the foreign building program, as these files are unavailable elsewhere.
