Ledgers collection (Georgia Institute of Technology), 1887-1999 (bulk 1887-1981).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/236486375

This collection consists of about 480 ledgers containing accounts payable and receivable records, student rolls (including records of payment, attendance, and offenses, as well as some grades), time sheets, dormitory records, budgets, and some correspondence. The ledgers primarily document student and financial records at Georgia Tech, but they also provide particularly rich documentation of the day-to-day operation of the first fifty years of the school's existence (1885-1935). The ledgers from the earliest years of this time period (1887-1920) represent some of the earliest extant manuscripts produced by Georgia Tech. The later volumes, particularly those dating from after ca. 1960, contain mainly budgetary and financial information.
