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.

This series contains correspondence, budgets, the records of ASPA conferences (especially the regional conference this chapter held in Albany in 1978), the national and local associations' constitutions, a few publications from organizations with related interests, videotapes of ASPA educational programs (May 1988), and files on subjects they were working on, such as civil service reform. Other records in this series include correspondence that was not a part of the presidents' files or the secretary's files. The bulk of the correspondence is that with the National Association, though much of that consists of memoranda sent to local chapters.
