This subseries contains publications not numbered by van den Haag. They are internally arranged the same as subseries 1, but externally in chronological order by date published.

These records document the work of NYSSAC in supporting legislation that would help senior citizens avoid becoming victims of consumer fraud. They include legislative memorandums, manuals, reports and correspondence on topics such as item pricing for electronically scanned items, funeral home legislation, and utility pricing.

This subseries contains manuscript and typescript drafts, typescripts, notes, reprints, monographs, and a small amount of correspondence related to Studer's writing projects. Of interest are two typescript drafts of unpublished projects: Community Life and Woodland Story both of which are reflective pieces examining Studer's life and work at the Downtown Community School and Camp Woodland respectively. Please note that Studer published some Woodland Story chapters separately. For instance, "Folklore from a Valley that Died" (Chapter 9) was a standalone article in New York Folklore Quarterly in 1956. The standalone article "Yarns of a Catskill Woodsman" (Chapter 16) appeared in New York Folklore Quarterly in 1955. "Mike Todd's Story" (Chapter 11) later evolved into and was published as A Catskill Woodsman. A draft of Woodland Story's Chapter 17 entitled "Our Catskill Teachers" also appears as a section of a draft of Chapter 3. Therefore draft text is found in both files. This collection is missing later draft chapters of Woodland Story so there are gaps in the order.

Includes incoming and outgoing personal correspondence, mailart, and some dbqp correspondence. Includes a separate cubic foot of oversized correspondence.

Included are reports, correspondence and Board meeting packets.
