Additional Description

Series Description

Arranged in its original order, this series contains IUPAC’s Standing Committees files. The files in this series document the activities of thirteen IUPAC Standing Committees, including, but not limited to, CHEMRAWN (Committee on Chemical Research Applied to World Needs),the Committee on Teaching of Chemistry (CTC), the Committee on Chemistry and Industry (COCI), and the Interdivisional Committee on Nomenclature and Symbols (IDCNS).

The contents of the Standing Committees files consist mainly of correspondence. A variety of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, papers, legal documents, reports, minutes, and manuscripts are preserved here as well.

Note - Materials in Boxes 69-77 created by the Archives of the Committee on Teaching of Chemistry (CTC) were damaged in a fire. A number of fire damaged files were subsequently discarded, hence the large gaps in the numbering. Traces of fire-retardant chemicals may remain on the files in Boxes 69-77 that were preserved.
