Notes from contacts
No digital copies currently exist. All issues need to be digitized from paper (one from microfiche). Issues are generally in good condition.
NOTE: Most issues are available in consummable form from Barker Library (including holdings from a recent HTL donation). Some are soft bound; a few may be hard bound. All these can be disbound, scanned and discarded. However a few issues are available only from the Archives’ permanent collections and are not consummable. They are softbound and will need to be rebound or foldered for return to the Archives. Updated 8/10: All reports are to be returned to Archives. They will decide which reports should be consumed.
Archives will handle the consumable items. Return all reports to Archives. 8.10
