Administrative Files, 1972-2005, Undated 2.25 cubic ft.
The series contains administrative materials created at the chapter, regional, state and national levels of the National Organization for Women. This includes meeting minutes, by-laws, financial reports, conference materials, legislative and lobbying files, task force materials and correspondence. The national, regional and statewide materials were acquired and retained at the local level, many by Sue Stevens Larsen, an Albany Area Chapter president in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The Albany Area NOW Chapter files consist of event flyers, press releases, correspondence, meeting minutes and newspaper clippings which document day-to-day activities. Please note that the New York State Council Meeting files may include just meeting materials for some years, while folders for other years contain plans, possibly discussed at meetings, event materials, and correspondence. At this is how the organization arranged the files, archivists retained this original order.
