Carl Alfred Jacobson was born in Grantsburg, Wisconsin on January 25, 1876, the son of Carl John and Anna Britta Jacobson. He received in B.S. from Carlton College in 1903, and completed a master's (1907) and Ph.D. (1908) in chemistry at The Johns Hopkins University. He also studied in Scandinavia from 1911 to 1912.

Jacobson returned to Hopkins briefly as a fellow in 1919; in 1920 he began his long association with West Virginia University. His research areas included chlorophylls, alfalfa constituents, silica black and silica fluff. He invented various lab apparatus, a calculating machine, and a new method for determining the solubility of solids at different temperatures. He was granted U.S. patents on processes for treating powdered coal and carburized silica. Although Jacobson published 36 research papers between 1908 and 1930, he is best remembered as the chief editor of The Encyclopedia of Chemical Reactions (6 volumes, 1946-1956).

Title: Papers, 1889-1947.

The diaries form the bulk of the collection and offer researchers insight into the social, campus, family and church life of a scientific man living in twentieth century America. Although Jacobson makes occasional note of his scientific work, the mentions are brief at best. He instead chose to focus on the events of daily life, including during his studies in the U.S. and abroad and during his long career at West Virginia University. He is direct and unflinching in many of his entries, perhaps as a result of his scientific training. The span of the journals, along with the insightful nature of their contents, make them valuable for research into many aspects of early twentieth century social and family history.
