Processing Information

Mark A. Vargas processed accession 1994-029 at the Archives in June-August 1995. The original condition of the collection was very poor. Most of the items were badly disorganized, and largely piled into boxes without any sort of file arrangement or dating. The collection was arranged as much as possible by the name of Shue's works. Michele Christian processed accession 1997-003 (boxes 6-8) in August 1997. Leslie Heinrichs reprocessed the first accession in January-April 2000. Dan Vinson, supervised by Christel Maass, processed accession 2007-032 (boxes 9-10) in April 2008.

In October 2011, Bob Jaeger removed 57 safety film negatives and placed them with other safety film negatives.
