Sub-series 4. Meeting Files, 1970-1978

Arranged alphabetically by subject, this sub-series contains meeting files collected and maintained by William A. Lester, Jr. during his tenure at IBM. These files concern the various meetings Lester had the opportunity to attend as a representative of IBM, including conferences, symposia, colloquia, federal government agency panel meetings, university visits, and workshops. Lester participated in most of the meetings represented in these files. He gave lectures, speeches, or presentations at several of the functions documented in these files.

The contents of the Meeting Files consist of a variety of materials. Correspondence, notes, attendee lists, brochures, and agendas are the most common materials found in this sub-series. Smaller, but noticeable, amounts of presentation manuscripts, paper abstracts, programs, publications, and transparencies are also present in this sub-series. Small amounts of other miscellaneous materials, including, but not limited to, articles, reprints, and reports are preserved here as well.
