http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/51004122

The largest portion of James Malin's papers is correspondence. Correspondents include other historians and relatives of people on whom Malin did research. He also corresponded frequently with employees of the Kansas State Historical Society (Topeka). A small part of Malin's collection consists of his own autobiographical notes, composed in 1969. The collection also contains material from Malin's days as a graduate student at the University of Kansas (Lawrence); this series also includes transcripts of Malin's grades and a United States atlas published by Frank Hodder that Malin used & in which he wrote notes. A significant portion of the collection relates to his teaching career. Malin taught courses dealing with the history of Kansas, the history of the Trans-Mississippi West, general United States history, and various seminars. Another part of his collection consists mainly of notes pertaining to his research. Material dealing with Malin as a writer makes up a large series containing 12 units. Most of this series consists of articles, book reviews, chapters of books, and essays he wrote. A much smaller subseries consists of various documents dealing with Malin's writings. The 2nd unit is made up of his copyright certificates. The 5th unit consists of mailing lists for copies of Malin's writings. The 6th unit consists of lists of his writings. The 7th unit consists of general lists of works that include writings by Malin. The 9th unit consists of papers dealing with his efforts to have some of his works published. The 12th unit consists of a few miscellaneous papers that relate to Malin's writings. A number of writings by others appear in the collection, but papers handed in to Malin by his students are not included. A second, smaller subseries consists of lists of writings by people other than Malin. Malin's own research notes contain much information on Kansas history. He had a great interest in demography and population. Major correspondents included George Anderson, Lee Benson, Allan Bogue, Avery Craven, Earle DeLay, Larry Gara, Frank Hodder, Hans Jenny, Kirke Mechem & Nyle Miller of the Kansas State Historical Society, Fulmer Mood, and W.T. Root; other correspondents include William F. Buckley, George Docking, Henry Kissinger, James F. Malin, Lawrence Romaine of Weathercock House, and William Allen White.
