Series Description

Arranged alphabetically by subject, this series contains printed materials collected by Kenneth R. Shoulders over the course of his career. Shoulders wrote, contributed to, or is mentioned in a majority of materials in this series. Of particular interest are the copies of Shoulders’ book EV, A Tale of Discovery, the publications he wrote for Jupiter Technologies, and the various printed materials Shoulders wrote for the Stanford Research Institute.

This series also contains a significant amount of materials that have no connection to Kenneth R. Shoulders, but do pertain to topics that were of interest to him. The topics represented by these materials include, but are not limited to, microelectronics, aviation, and cold fusion.

The contents of this series consist mainly of publications, which include, but are not limited to, reports, government documents, conference programs, conference proceedings, proposals, and printed technical papers. Clippings of articles, photocopies of articles, and article reprints are also in the Printed Materials series. A few magazines and journals, including issues of Journal of Applied Physics, Microminiaturization, and Research for Industry are also preserved in this series. A handful of books, including two copies of Shoulders’ EV, A Tale of Discovery and two photocopies of books regarding cold fusion are found here as well.
