The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists (BAS) was begun in December 1945 by Eugene Rabinowitch and Hyman H. Goldsmith. Originally called the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists of Chicago, it served as a newsletter for the Atomic Scientists of Chicago. In 1946 the name was changed to its present form. The Bulletin started "as a means of calling public attention to the perils of atomic energy and the urgent need for its control by a civilian agency". The BAS evolved into a forum for scientists concerned about science policy and the relationship of science to national and international affairs. It covers topics ranging from genetics to pollution to space exploration. Rabinowitch and Goldsmith co-edited the journal until the latter's death in August 1949. From 1949 until his own death in 1973, Rabinowitch was editor-in-chief of the Bulletin. BAS continues to be published ten times a year under the auspices of the Educational Foundation of Nuclear Science, Inc. The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1945-1972, files are organized into three sections as listed and described below. Material within the sections is arranged chronologically by year, month, and day. Partially dated material is placed at the end of the month or year; undated items are placed after dated material.

The union kept its letters and memos according to those whose origins were national and those whose origins were local. Therefore, this series is divided into national and local subseries with folder titles retained exactly as the TTUU named them. Both subseries are arranged by year, then alphabetically by folder title within each year. The national subseries contains substantial incoming and outgoing correspondence from specific offices or people such as James Irvine (CWA vice-president) and Morton Bahr (CWA president) or presidents of locals in District One, which covers unions in New York, New Jersey, New England, and eastern Canada. The local subseries tend to be divided by group affiliation such as NYTel workers, stewards, and AT&T headquarters.
