BOX 12-79 | Federal Career, 1925-1953 | ||||||||||||
The Federal Career series documents Evans's involvement in the Work Projects
Administration Historical Records Survey (HRS) and UNESCO, and his career at
the Library of Congress. The work of the HRS is documented mostly through
correspondence, memoranda, and writings, and frequently deals with personnel
issues, planning, and projects, including the American imprints inventory,
American portrait survey, and “Annotated Bibliography of American History.”
The Francis S. Philbrick letter file contains information on early HRS
planning. The bulk of the UNESCO files document meetings, beginning with
records of the 1945 meetings to establish the organization, and continuing
to 1953. Files for each meeting often include Evans's notes on the
participants and matters discussed. No material in the collection documents
Evans's tenure as UNESCO director-general. The Library of Congress files
largely document his role as director of the Legislative Reference Service
and contain many notes he maintained throughout his career at the Library,
including as librarian, from 1939 to 1953. The "slip notes" contain short
memoranda to Evans from secretarial staff regarding phone messages,
meetings, reminders, and other day-to-day business. The series also
documents Evans's involvement in the drafting and adoption by UNESCO of the
1952 Universal Copyright Convention. Material types include correspondence, press releases, reports, news clippings, articles, manuals, notes, photographs, newsletters, agendas, meeting minutes, programs, diaries, financial documents, and printed matter. |
