Processing Information
The date this material was received by the University of Maryland is not documented in the control file. There was an accession review conducted by Anne Turkos 1984-1987 which created the existing documentation.
In 2023, Rosemarie Fettig verified shelf locations and created an inventory of the materials. It was determined that the linear feet did not match the earlier accession review, and the document types listed on the original accession worksheet were not an exact match for the actual materials. Extents, locations, and description in ArchivesSapce represent materials that were located on the shelf in 2023. Rosemarie replaced hanging files with acid-free folders and foldered loose materials as necessary during the creation of the inventory, then created a Series level record in the existing Resource Record based on the descriptive content of the inventory, using the ArchivesSpace bulk import spreadsheet. The materials are incorporated into the existing TWIU collection resource record under the series title “Rene Rondou papers.”
