Scope and Contents

The Unicode collection is comprised of personal notes,reports, meeting minutes, agendas, editorial drafts, correspondence, conference proceedings, source material, publications, and ephemera. These materials document the development of the Unicode Standard and related activities of the Unicode Technical Committee from the 1980's into 2020.
The bulk of collection is comprised of documents from the early days of Unicode (specifically 1984-1998), much of which has not been available online and which highlights the evolution of Unicode Standard, beginning with the initial 1.0 version to its current iteration.
The activities and output of the following working groups are prominently featured in the collection:
Unicode Technical Committee, the technical committee of the Unicode Consortium responsible for maintaining the Unicode Standard.
X3L2 (later referred to as L2), the technical committee of the InterNational Committee for Information Technology Standards (INCITS) which deals with U.S. work on international standards in the character encoding and internationalization subareas.
Working Group 2 (WG2), a working group that deals with the maintenance of ISO/IEC 10646, the international multilingual character encoding standard maintained along with the Unicode Standard.
Working Group 20 (WG20), a now-defunct working group that formerly handled internationalization issues related to programming languages, including collation of strings.
Also featured in the collection are editorial notes and drafts for various versions of the Unicode standard, early notes and research files from Joseph D. Becker, a co-founder of Unicode, documents from the Unicode Board of Directors and officer meetings, conference proceedings from the International Unicode Conferences, as well as general correspondence, printed material, and ephemera.
Later versions of some of these materials, as well as related documentation, can be found on Unicode's website.
