University of Washington School of Nursing scrapbook, 1919-1944.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/650355959

The University of Washington School of Nursing scrapbook chiefly contains newspaper clippings about nurses, national nursing organizations, meetings and conventions, nursing education, the University of Washington's School of Nursing, public health, and hospitals. A considerable portion of the volume documents the 1922 National Convention of the Nursing Associations held in Seattle, Washington. In addition to clippings, this joint meeting (which brought together the American Nurses' Association, National League of Nursing Education, and the National Organization for Public Health Nursing) is represented by a few pieces of ephemera, including a program with a delegate's ribbon laid in, as well as a placard pasted into the front of the volume. A separate set of materials not pasted into the scrapbook, appears to relate mainly to a meeting of the Sectional Conference of the Graduate Nurses Associations, held in Glacier Park, Montana in 1919, but also includes clippings later in date.
