Lecture notes were cataloged by Lynn A. Grove on 1988-07-14. The Stimson papers were among a large group of papers that were organized in 2016-2018 with the support of the Henry Luce Foundation and the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation; material was maintained in its original binding, secured with cotton ties, and re-housed in standard archival folders and housing. The finding aid was created by Rebecca Nieto in 2018 and edited by Leah Edelman in 2020.
