Overview
James L. Weil (1929-2006)
Processing Information
The finding aid for this collection was originally compiled from individual preliminary lists for each acquisition that were created at or around the time of receipt by the library. The preliminary lists were migrated to comply with current archival descriptive standards and merged into a single file in 2007-2008. As part of the migration, modifications were made to the formatting of individual lists; however, the content of the lists was neither modified nor verified. In January 2014, additional work was done on the collection to standardize the housing and description across acquisitions, and a single call number was assigned.
Former call numbers: Uncat Za Ms Weil, Uncat Za Ms 107, Uncat Za Ms 152, Uncat Za Ms 242, Uncat Za Ms 274, Uncat Za Ms 338, Uncat Za Ms 339, Uncat Za Ms 418, Uncat Za Ms 535, Uncat Za Ms 557, Uncat Za Ms 560, Uncat MSS 17, Uncat MSS 206, Uncat MSS 250, Uncat MSS 772 and Uncat Za File 708.
This finding aid may be updated periodically to account for new acquisitions to the collection and/or revisions in arrangement and description.
