Arrangement
Researchers should note that material within each acquisition may overlap with or relate to material found in other acquisitions. For instance, diaries from Berlandier's expeditions may be found in multiple acquisitions. In order to locate all relevant material within this collection, researchers will need to consult each acquisition described in the Collection Contents section.
Researchers should also note that similar material can be arranged differently in each acquisition, depending on how the material was organized when it was received and cataloged by the library.

General note
Processing Information
In 2015 this collection received a basic level of reorganization and some augmented description, including consolidation of former call numbers into a single call number: WA MSS S-300.
Information included in the Description of Papers note and Collection Contents section is drawn from legacy descriptive information created by Sir Thomas Phillipps, Henry R. Wagner, Thomas W. Streeter, and the Library. Some titles have been supplied by staff during processing. Catalog numbers created by Phillipps have been noted for the items, where possible. The Phillipps numbers were published in Phillipps' catalog of his collection and in auction catalogs; they are also present on the items for which they are noted.
This finding aid may be updated periodically to account for revisions in arrangement and description.
Former call numbers: WA MSS S-300-325, WA MSS S-328, Uncat WA MS 56, Uncat WA MS 178, and Uncat WA MS File Berlandier.
