Graduate School of Library and Information Science Horn Printing Chappel Files 1960-1993

The Horn Printing Chappel Files, Record Series 704, are mainly comprised of the records of Andrew Horn's printing press work conducted at the University of California, Los Angeles, where Horn first served, beginning in the 1950's, in a variety of high-ranking roles such as the head of Special Collections Department, University Archivist, and co-founder of the School of Library Service. Horn's interest in the art of printing led to the development of a course and club on the subject and UCLA acquiring printing presses. The records of Horn's administration of the press represent only one aspect of his contribution to UCLA. As Horn's colleague, records of Diana Thomas's professional pursuits can also be found in this series.
