Biographical/Historical note
The Stanford University Archives was officially created in 1965 by the Board of
Trustees, but active collection of historical materials had been in place prior to that
date. One of the early attempts to catalog some of that material was a subject framework
known as the "4digit" collection, now known as the publications and ephemera
collection.
Scope and Contents note
This intentionally assembled collection contains publications, printed matter, and
ephemera documenting Stanford University. The major subject headings are history of the
founders and the university; administration; faculty; academic schools; graduate schools
of law, medicine, and business; libraries; interdepartmental programs; athletics;
students; alumni; and special topics, including local history.
