             Historical note 
             The Bureau of Business Research was under the College of Commerce, and was responsible for outside research in the field of business. The work done by this office was first organized in 1928 under the title of Bureau of Business Research in the College of Commerce with Dr. Edward Wiest as director, and James W. Martin as assistant. The office has had three titles and four directors as follows: Bureau of Business Research, Edward Wiest (December 1928-1937), James W. Martin (1937-February 1964, Glenn Burress was acting director for a few months), John J. Fulmer (1964-March 1967); Office of Development Services and Business Research, H.K. Charlesworth (March 1, 1967-); Office of Business Development and Government Services. Quoting from an undated sketch of the Bureau of Business Research by Dr. James W. Martin: "On recommendation of President Frank L. McVey, the University of Kentucky in 1928 established the Bureau of Business and began to function under its present direction in the autumn of the same year. "The work of the Bureau is mainly three-fold. The first job, as its name implies is investigation of business and economic problems; the second is service work of various sorts; the third is preparation of popular articles, brief notes, and other semi-scholarly copy for various publications." The last general statement concerning the Bureau was found in the catalog of the University of Kentucky for 1959-60, page 343. " The Bureau of Business Research was established to provide facilities for the investigation of problems in the fields of economics and business. The research work done by the Bureau is complimentary to that done individually by other members of the teaching faculty of the College of Commerce. The Bureau does considerable work for civic organizations and private business groups, but its main activities have been concerned with the business problems of federal, state, and local governments. For example, it has done service and research work for such Kentucky agencies as the Legislative Research Commission, the Departments of Economic Development, Finance and Revenue, and city and county governments, as well as for departments of the federal government."

                     Custodial History note 
                     Placed in Bureau of Source Materials in Higher Education (now University Archives) by Professor James W. Martin while Professor Ezra L. Gillis was Director. 
                 
                 
                     Scope and Contents note 
                     Four deposits of papers from this office have been received in University Archives, three of which have been processed and inventory sheets typewritten. The first boxes of material were stored in the Service Building shortly after space there was assigned to the Bureau of Source Materials in Higher Education while Professor Ezra L. Gillis was director. These papers seemed to cover the period from the organization of the Bureau of School Service, as well as some earlier papers of Professor Martin, through 1949. This material was not listed in any way for some years but when processed it was in 26 archival boxes. A brief study of the 41 inventory sheets reveals that this could be in better order.
