This series consists of calendars of events, newspaper clippings, histories of the village of Menands, meeting schedules and annual programs. Initially these programs were bound volumes listing such information as the meeting dates, book to be discussed, hostess for each meeting and presenters and topics. Eventually they became less elaborate and frequently were one sheet of paper featuring a typed meeting schedule.
