Papers, 1905-1956.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/43627741

The Presidential Papers collection contains President Aydelotte's official correspondence and correspondence with faculty. The Personal Papers collection spans his entire career and describes a wide variety of his activities: academic, cultural, philanthropic, family matters, and governmental advising, in which he acted in a personal capacity and not as an officer of Swarthmore College. Aydelotte himself did not make a clear distinction between personal and official papers, so the personal papers include materials directly related to his official responsibilities as President of Swarthmore College.
