The Link Collections.

Includes correspondence, photographs, newsclippings, original manuscripts, publications by and about Edwin A. and Marion Clayton Link and concerning their research and the Link enterprises. The Edwin A. Link papers include approximately 21,000 items, dating from 1939 until his death in 1981, with the bulk of materials being concentrated between 1940 and 1970. Among the materials are photographs, records and correspondence having to do with the various Link enterprises; charts and maps; legal documents; journals, reports and speeches. Some 120 books, dealing primarily with aviation and navigation, were also donated from the Links' personal reference library. The Marion Clayton Link papers comprise approximately 1,000 items, including journals and many manuscripts of her articles and books. Because the Links worked as a team, many of her achievements are also chronicled with his in the Edwin Link collection. The Marion Link collection represents her chiefly as a writer and journalist. The Link Foundation papers include approximately 2,000 items and cover the years from 1954, when the Foundation was created, into the early 1990's. They pertain to the business of the Foundation: for example, grants and fellowships awarded, financial statements, and minutes of meetings. The Link-Hughes collection consists of approximately 600-800 items--correspondence, newspaper clippings, awards, booklets, drawings--dating back to the early 1940's and having to do with the development and history of the Link enterprises. It provides an excellent addition to materials in the original Edwin Link collection.
