PREFACE

, The Inventory of Federal Archives in the States is one of the products of

j the work of the Survey of Federal Archives, which operated as a nation—wide proj—

§ ect of the Works Progress Administration from January 1, 1936 to June 30, 1937,

l and has been continued since that date as a unit of the Historical Records Survey,

' also operating as a nation-wide project of the Works Progress Administration, and
a group of state or local projects of that Administration and of the Work Projects
Administration.

‘ The plan for the organization of the Inventory is as follows: Series I con—
sists of reports on the administration of the Survey, acknowledgments,and gen—

‘ oral discussions of the location, condition, and content of federal archives in

‘ the states. Succeeding series contain the detailed information secured by work-
ers of the Survey, in inventory form, a separate series number being assigned
to each of the executive departments (except the Department of State) and other V
major units of the Federal Government. Within each series No. l is a general
introduction to the field organization and records of the governmental agency
concerned; the succeeding numbers contain the inventory proper, separate numbers
being assigned to each state in alphabetical order. Thus, in each series, the
inventory for Alabama is No. 2, that for Arizona No. 3, that for Arkansas No. 4,
etc.

\ For each local office information regarding each series, or unit of related
records, is presented in the following order: title, inclusive dates (”to date”
indicating an open file at the time the information was secured), general de-
scription of informational content, description of the system of filing or in-
dexing (if any), a statement of frequency and purpose of use, form of the record
itself (bound volumes, sheets in folders, ctc.), linear footage, description of
the containers, physical condition of the records (not stated if satisfactory),
location by room number or other identifying information, and finally, the num—

‘ ' ber of the Form 585A on which this information was originally recorded by a Sur—
vey worker and from which it was abstracted for the Inventory. This form is on
file in the National Archives. When it contains substantial information on ad—
denda sheets which has not been included in the mimeographed abstract, indica—

V tion of this is given by use of the reference "See addenda."
In Illinois the work of the Survey was under the direction of Dr. Russell ’
H. Anderson, with Mr. William E. Austin who resigned in April 1937 as his assist—

, ant, from its inception until June 30, 1937. The project then became a part of
the Historical Records Survey in Illinois with Mr. Howard E. Colgan as State
Director until June 1989 when he was succeeded by Mr. Royal S. Van de Woestyne.
On September 1, 1939, the name of the Survey was changed to the Illinois His-

‘ torical Records Survey Project, and the Illinois State Library became its spon—
sor. Since January 15, 1940, this sponsorship has been assumed by the University
of Illinois. This inventory of the Archives of the Department of the Navy in

. ; Illinois was prepared by Senior Editor Stanley Schulty, assisted by Eugene

3 Kendrick, and was typed and stenciled by Margaret Birdie of the Chicago office.

E Before final typing and mimeographing, this product was edited by Henry P. Beers

§ in the Washington office.
