Series IV: Publications, 1904-2013

Series IV: Publications includes course bulletins, promotional materials, newsletters, event programs, and other printed material generated by the School of Social Work. Many of these materials were retained and used by various entities within the school. For example, both the Office of the Dean and the Office of Development and Alumni Relations kept reference collections of course bulletins and annual reports. For ease of access, those publications were placed in Series IV, unless they were heavily annotated or otherwise more informative in their original context.
