Biographical notes:

The Art and Architecture Vertical File has been maintained throughout the 20th century by the librarians of the Fine Arts Department of the Cleveland Public Library. Like most vertical files, the librarians focused on maintaining clippings that related to the subject matter of the department, but there were also tangential clippings kept by the librarians related to various antiquities.

Vertical files throughout history were kept by librarians as a reference resource of daily clippings from local newspapers, photographs, brochures, and magazines on various subjects. Before the internet and online databases, many librarians found it helpful and necessary to keep clippings and reference materials on file related to a wide variety of subjects. These clippings and other materials were then consolidated and became the library's vertical file. The Art and Architecture Vertical File was maintained with a focus on the arts and architecture of Cleveland, Ohio.
