Records concerning the Medical Library Association, 1931-1958.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122380214

This collection of records concerning the Medical Library Association, 1931 to 1958, includes correspondence, papers from annual MLA meetings, and miscellaneous material. McDaniel served as president of the MLA from 1946 to 1947; the correspondence from 1947 and 1948 documents his influence as past-president of the organization. McDaniel served on the Executive Committee and the Program and Entertainment Committee during these years. Included are numerous letters concerning the preparation of the Proceedings of the MLA for publication in the "Bulletin of the Medical Library Association". Other correspondence concerns the formation of committees and the appointment of committee members. Series 2 contains records from annual meetings of the MLA. Included are registration forms, programs, banquet menus, minutes, amendments to the by-laws, committee reports, and other miscellaneous material. The annual meeting of 1947 is the best documented in the collection. Of special interest are the numerous committee reports from this year; several reports concern the effects of World War II on American medical libraries and address such problems as the increasing cost of foreign journals due to rising post-war inflation. Included in Series 3 is miscellaneous material pertaining to the MLA. Present is the MLA Secretary's Manual (1939), a list of medical subheadings prepared by the Library of the New York Academy of Medicine (1942), MLA financial records (1945-1946), and other miscellaneous items.
