Series III. Meeting Files, 1961-2009

Arranged alphabetically by subject, this series contains Eugene Garfield's meeting files. These files provide documentation of some of the professional meetings, conferences, symposia, and seminars attended by Garfield between the 1960s and 2000s. To a lesser extent, they also document Garfield's activities at these meetings, which in most cases, featured presentations given by him.

The contents of the Meeting Files consist of a variety of materials. Correspondence, manuscripts of articles and presentations written by Garfield, journal and periodical articles, and miscellaneous printed materials are the most common items found in this series. Noticeable amounts of notes, copies of conference papers, webpage printouts, article reprints, and floppy disks are also present in the Meeting Files. Examples of a few other types of materials, including, but not limited to, publications, bibliography printouts, a CD-ROM, and a DVD are preserved here as well.

NOTE – A single file labelled "File Empty" (Box 104 Folder 6) is present in the Numerical Files sub-series. This file is kept here because it was determined to be an integral part of the sub-series. It is believed that this file formerly contained materials that are now missing.
