The Daisy Parker Flory Collection documents many aspects of Dr. Flory's professional life, and is valuable to researchers studying Florida elections, higher education in Florida, state government reorganization, and changes in the Florida executive and legislative branches of government from the late 1950s through the 1970s. The majority of the papers are subject files containing materials she used in teaching Florida Government classes at Florida State University. The collection includes correspondence, photographs, and reference materials, mostly journals. The class materials originally included several boxes of deteriorating newspaper clippings. Several sample folders were retained, and news clippings from these folders were photocopied. Samples of some journals she used in her work were retained for the reference files.
