The Quarterly Release, 1951-1962.

This series consists of issues for 1957-1962 of the WMS/ALCW publication The Quarterly Release. This was the last publication published solely by the WMS/ALCW and was intended as a reference tool for leaders of local societies. It was published four times per year, but this series is missing certain issues. Volume 1 numbers 3 and 4 are missing, as well as volume 2 number 1. Some significant topics represented in this publication include information pertaining to the Unified Plan, which was the reorganization and consolidation of all women's groups within a congregation into one auxiliary; special projects receiving emphasis for a particular time period, one example being the Reading Project of 1957; information regarding the WMS biennial convention in 1958; and the World Friendship Fund, which became a joint offering of children and youth of the Augustana Church. Records are arranged chronologically and duplicates were removed.
