Comment: there is not a whole lot here in terms of sources, although, as noted above, formally sufficient to pass . For me the deciding factor is that the AAS obituary contains detailed and substantial biographical info. So the article can be expanded to actually look like a reasonable biography

Comment: Thanks for the ping Tigraan. I just did a Google search and found quite a few hits. https://www.americanantiquarian.org/Findingaids/albert_carlos_bates.pdf This source includes a short biography of the subject, and explains that his papers are archived in the American Antiquarian Society's Archive Collection, and also says that there is a biography of him in the AAS Newsclipping File, and directs you to  AAS Proceedings, vol. 64 (21 April 1954), pp. 8-10, which I assume from the context is another biography. I don't have access to it, but I'd have thought that would all contribute significantly toward notability. He's also discussed in some detail on pp130-131 of https://books.google.com/books?id=o3VxxzNJcfkC&pg=PA131&lpg=PA131&dq=Albert+Carlos+Bates&source=bl&ots=uFUGkqRo-4&sig=ACfU3U20vBdcfnpJLQqJ6c_J397S0QQoyA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjZtZf8h-zjAhWWpp4KHTSAD7o4ChDoATAIegQIBxAB#v=onepage&q=Albert%20Carlos%20Bates&f=false The Encyclopedia of Library and Information Science: Volume 38 - Supplement 3. I stopped looking at that point, but there are more hits on a Google - I'm convinced he passes  based on these sources
