The Crawford Young papers have maintained a good deal of original order within the two separate accessions which make up the collection. The papers transferred to UW-Archives make up boxes 1-4 of the collection and well as box 8 which contains items separated on account of their size. These papers primarily concern professor Young's teaching, research, and professional activities, as well as his professional correspondence. Boxes 5 - 7 of the collection represent those papers donated by Young's family in 2020. These papers concern Young's publications and his work refereeing other published work in his field as well as expanding his personal correspondence. This section of the collection (boxes 6 and 7) contain his research notes for three projects to which he assigned nicknames (Africa, CP, and State).
