[Identification of Item], Minute books of the Los Angeles County Medical
Association, The Huntington Library, San Marino, California.
On long-term loan from the Los Angeles County Medical Association, 1992.
The Los Angeles County Medical Association began in 1878, a professional institution
designed to regulate and encourage the development of the medicine in Los Angeles.
Since then, the organization has established itself as an important institution in
the profession. The Association's library quickly became an archive for the medical
history of California and an invaluable research resource for physicians.
The collection contains forty-one (41) volumes of minute books of the Los Angeles
County Medical Association (LACMA) from 1871 to 1970. Most of the volumes are typewritten, but some are handwritten.
The collection consists of three series:
- 1. Four initial minute books from meetings of the association from its beginning in 1871 to 1905.
- 2. 28 volumes of minutes from LACMA’s Board of Councilors from 1905 to 1970.
- 3. Nine volumes of the minutes of LACMA’s Board of Trustees from 1920 to 1966.
Arrangement
The volumes are labeled Volume 1–41; each series is arranged in chronological
order.
