Processing information:

This collection was processed by volunteer Rob Ostrander in 2013. Series arrangement and box numbers that were established by previous Redwood Library staff and volunteers were maintained in order to allow for future accruals and possible expansion of the collection. Each box in this collection has its own record in the Library’s online catalog and the barcodes for such can sometimes be found on the inside cover of the box. During the 2013 processing, all ephemera were removed from this collection to make its articles, clippings, photocopies, and reprints easier to consult. All Newport related ephemera can now be found within its own collection: Newport ephemera collection, RLC.Ms.028.
