The administrative and student records of Tuck, Thayer, and Dartmouth Medical School are sought. Records documenting policy, such as student and faculty handbooks, are collected. Records documenting the physical facilities and their development are collected. Reappraisal of administrative holdings is needed to identify documentation gaps as well as duplication. It is apparent that duplicate records, duplicated information, mis-identified holdings, and inadequate descriptions present access challenges.
Most records are in English.
The collection is bound by locations of Dartmouth College properties and facilities. By and large, the records are office files. Unofficial records are also acquired when they provide documentation of College-related programs and activities. The records may be in media such as paper, digital storage, magnetic storage, or audio-visual recordings. The records form may be correspondence, memoranda, minutes, reports, data, newsletters, photographs, brochures, or another format.
