Processing Information
This collection was donated to the University of Maryland Libraries by the Tobacco Workers International Union (TWIU) on November 24, 1986. In addition to the accession worksheet, a handwritten folder-level inventory existed for these materials.
In 2023, Rosemarie Fettig verified the shelf location and prepared an inventory of these materials based on descriptive content available in the existing folder-level preliminary inventory. This inventory was then incorporated into the existing TWIU collection resource record using the ArchivesSpace bulk import spreadsheet under the series title “Constitutions, Bylaws, and Agreements.”
