New York State Modern Political Archive
Elected officials, interest groups, and activists from New York State.
The New York State Modern Political Archive (NYSMPA) was established in 1982 to document the work of individuals and private interest groups concerned with New York State public policy issues in the 20th century. Originally named the Archives of Public Affairs and Policy, the NYSMPA collects, preserves, and facilitates access to primary sources pertaining to New York State public affairs and policy, and now includes the personal papers of members of the gubernatorial administrations of Nelson A. Rockefeller; papers of former New York Congressional members and elected officials who served in New York State Legislature; and the official records and papers of numerous private groups, professional associations, individuals, public-sector labor unions, community groups, and other organizations concerned with Empire State public-policy issues.

The bulk of this series is made up of the interviewer's notes regarding each individual formally interviewed and potential interviewees. In addition to including the interviewer's handwritten notes taken during the formal taped interviews and during preliminary interviews with subjects, most interviewee files include a "UUP Potential Interview Candidate Fact Sheet", listing each individual's involvement in UUP at the statewide and chapter level (and in UUP's predecessors if applicable), including offices held and committees assigned to. Files for individuals formally interviewed often include an outline of issues to be covered during the interview and additional summaries of the individual's UUP activities.
