Margaret Tuttle papers and photographs,

The University of Kentucky Libraries series contains materials related to the University of Kentucky library. Included is a program from the dedication of the library building in 1931. Shortly after the library was named Margaret I. King Library in 1948, Margaret Tuttle chaired a committee to raise funds for an identifying plaque to be placed beside the building's entrance. Folder 5 contains materials, grouped by Ms. Tuttle, related to this campaign. Materials relating to and documenting an Abraham Lincoln exhibit, which was on display at the library in 1938, are also included.

The University of Kentucky Publications series contains materials regarding the University of Kentucky in general. This includes event programs, handbooks, newsletters, and campus maps. A leather bound commencement program for the Class of 1919 (Margaret Tuttle's class) is particularly noteworthy.

The Alumni Materials series contains materials relating to University of Kentucky alumni. Of particular interest are the materials relating to the class of 1919, of which Margaret Tuttle was a member. There are materials related to four different reunions of this class including photographs, programs, class lists, and newspaper clippings.

The Newspaper Clippings series contains information primarily regarding the University of Kentucky, Ms. Tuttle's Class of 1919, and Lexington history.

The Photographs series contains black and white images as well as a scrapbook. Many of the photographs seem to be of chemistry students, presumably taught by Franklin E. Tuttle, Margaret's father. The scrapbook's cover has the date 1916 written on it, however, the inside cover is inscribed "Franklin E. Tuttle, June 2, 1938." Although the photographic subjects are not listed, it is likely that a photograph of Dr. Tuttle appears within. Based on the inscription on the back of the photograph in Box 4, Item 4, it is believed that the class photograph of students at the University of Kentucky Model School includes Ms. Tuttle's younger brother Frank Waldo Tuttle.

The Additional Materials series contains a Half Century Club certificate presented to Ms. Tuttle in 1969 to recognize fifty years of loyalty to the University of Kentucky. Also of note in this series is a collection of Christmas cards, including some from former UK Presidents McVey and Donovan. It should be noted that while many of the cards are addressed to Ms. Tuttle, some belonged to her parents.
