Agency History
The Director and Librarian of the Texas State Library and Archives
Commission oversees the operations of that agency's divisions through which
his/her
duties and responsibilities are carried out. The Librarian, through the
years, has served on various state
boards and committees, sometimes appointed, sometimes as an ex-officio
member,
such as the Board of Library Examiners and the Sesquicentennial Commission.
The
Librarian has also been involved with legislation affecting public
libraries in
Texas, including the Library Systems Act and the Library Services and
Construction Act. The Librarian has also worked to secure grant funding
from several
sources for public libraries and various programs within the State Library,
such as the Blind and Physically Handicapped program. S/He has also served
in
varying capacities (committees, boards, etc.) with a number of
library/historical groups, including the Texas Library Association, the
Texas
State Historical Association, the Society of American Archivists, and
others.
The Librarian also makes presentations to groups such as these, to smaller
organizations (such as county-wide groups), and to public libraries. During
the
time period covered by these records the State Librarians were Dr. Dorman
Winfrey, William D. Gooch, and Dr. Robert S. Martin.
The Texas State Library and Archives Commission was created in 1909
(House Bill 142, 31st Legislature, Regular Session) and is governed by
Chapter
441 of the Government Code, V.T.C.A. (previously Vernon's Ann. Civ. St.,
Article 5434). Commission members are appointed by the Governor, with
concurrence of the Senate, to six-year overlapping terms. The Commission
appoints the Director and Librarian who serves as the executive
officer
of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission as well as the executive
and
administrative officer of the Commission's governing board. Duties of the
Director and Librarian are to record the proceedings of the Commission
and
keep
account of its financial transactions; approve expenditures made in
connection
with the State Library; have charge of the State Library and materials
contained therein; demand and collect records of state agencies and
officials
not connected to their current duties; endeavor to collect manuscript
records
in the hands of private individuals; procure archives of the state which
have
been removed, including those found in Mexico and other states; preserve
historical relics and memorabilia which come into possession of the State
Library; give proper attention to the care and availability of the archives
in
custody of the State Library; make a biennial report to the Governor; and
ascertain the condition of all public libraries in the state and report the
results to the Commission. Additionally, s/he is authorized by law to
transfer,
dispose of, or otherwise destroy records in his/her custody that have no
permanent value.
As of 1984, divisions were
Administration (including offices of the Librarian, Assistant
Librarian, and publications), Administrative Services (including personnel,
accounting, building services, purchasing, and a print shop), Archives
(administering the permanently valuable official records of the state and
related historical materials), Data Processing (providing computer
operations
and assistance to the divisions), Blind and Physically Handicapped
(providing
materials for blind and disabled patrons), Information Services (including
genealogy, reference, U.S. and Texas documents programs, and technical
services), Library Development (working with public libraries to secure
funding, etc.), Local Records (operating a depository program for county
records), and Records Management (storing official records of the state
until
they are transferred to the Archives for permanent storage or are disposed
of
due to a non-permanent value). By 1995, the divisions had been condensed
into
Administrative Services, Automated Information Systems, the Talking Book
Program (providing services to all disabled Texans), Archives and
Information
Services (combining the majority of the old programs of the Archives and
the
Information Services and managing Regional Historical Resource
Depositories),
Technical Services (responsible for acquisitions, cataloging, processing
and
binding of library materials), Statewide Library Development (to promote
and
improve Texas libraries), and State and Local Records Management. Since
1995,
the Executive Office has been a somewhat independent unit, incorporating
the
Public Information Office and the offices of the Assistant Librarian and
the
Director and Librarian.
(Sources include: the enabling legislation,
1909; Chapter
441 of the Government Code, V.T.C.A.; and the records
themselves.)

in
dates but using different filing systems. The files have been arranged by
these
groups: 1946-1964; 1939-1968, bulk 1962-1967; 1962-1984, bulk 1968-1984;
and
1962-1999, bulk 1980-1992. No arrangement has been made within these
groups.
Many of the 1992/019 folders are labeled as miscellaneous correspondence
and
are filed alphabetically, with individuals' folders interfiled. Most of
these
particular records are arranged by correspondent or topic in two alphabetic
runs and are also, in some instances, arranged in reverse chronological
order.
Other records are in no discernible order.

Survey of public libraries,
1965,
1.56 cubic ft.
The Director and Librarian of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission oversees the operations of that agency's divisions through which
his/her
duties and responsibilities are carried out; one of those responsibilities is to ascertain the condition of all public libraries in the state and to report the
results to the Commission. This series consists of a statistical compilation (on a
computer
printout) of data concerning public libraries in the state of Texas. All
records date from 1965. The survey was undertaken to gather statistical
data on
the operations of public libraries. The information was gathered by the
Field
Services Division of the Texas State Library. Tabulation was done by
Management
Research International, Inc., of Austin, Texas. This is or has been a
continuing project. In other years the library survey has been published.
Copies of most years (beginning with 1966) of Texas Public Library
Statistics
can be found in the Texana collection of the Archives Division. No
published
copy of the 1965 data has been located to date.
Reports were done in three sections: individual libraries,
organized by size of the city's population; individual libraries, organized
alphabetically by city; and county summaries of libraries and services in
the
county. Type of data present include name and location of library; number
of
branches, stations, and bookmobiles; population served; number of volumes
on
hand, ordered and withdrawn; circulation statistics by type of book; number
of
registered borrowers - adult, juvenile, per capita; hours of service per
week;
financial status (receipts and expenditures) of library; and classification
of
staff by type of position. County summaries include number of libraries in
county, population served, volumes on hand, income of libraries, and
assessed
valuation of libraries.
Arrangement
Records remain in order as received.

files,
1973-1993,
1 cubic ft.
The Director and Librarian of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission oversees the operations of that agency's divisions through which
his/her
duties and responsibilities are carried out; one of those responsibilities is to give proper attention to the care and availability of the archives
in
custody of the State Library. Records document the
planning
of, funding for, construction of, and operation of the Sam Houston Regional
Library and Research Center under the guidance of Director and Librarian
Dorman
Winfrey. Types of records include correspondence, grant proposals, committee
membership lists, printed material, memoranda, plans, specifications,
project
reports, product information, blueprints, contracts, notices to bidders,
deeds,
leases, bills, newspapers, press releases, programs, agenda, a speech, an
organization chart, and an invitation, 1973-1993. The facility was constructed by the Texas State Library and
Archives
Commission, in conjunction with Lamar University, to serve the ten counties
in
southeast Texas that comprise the original Atascosito-Liberty District of
the
Republic of Mexico, by preserving and providing access to official and
private
papers of historical interest. The Research Center also provides teaching
facilities and library collections on Texas history, general history,
government, and religion. The construction, decoration, and furnishing was
funded by individual and foundation donations and grants; no public funds
were
used save for operational and maintenance funds. The site itself was
donated by
former Texas Governor and Mrs. Price Daniel and family. Price Daniel, who
served on the board of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission,
appears
frequently in the records, donating funds, assisting with the planning and
fundraising, serving on the Building Committee (as did then Lieutenant
Governor
William Hobby), inspecting the building while it was under construction,
and
expressing an interest in its operations. A few records concern the
Atascosito
Historical Society, funded in 1973, which sponsored the establishment of
the
Research Center.
Arrangement
Records are listed in the order in which they arrived.

The Director and Librarian of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission oversees the operations of that agency's divisions through which
his/her
duties and responsibilities are carried out. These files concern the application
of
the Library Systems Act (LSA) and the Library Services and Construction Act
(LSCA) to public libraries in Texas and consist of correspondence between the Texas State
Library
and Archives Commission's Director and Librarian, the U.S. Department of
Health, Education and Welfare, the Field Services Division of the State
Library
and public libraries from 1956 to 1968. Also present are minutes and meeting
agenda of LSA or LSCA meetings, copies of legislation, information
bulletins
about changes to the programs, and reports, including the Texas State Plan
for
Library Construction, the state plan for library extension services, and
the
applicant's guide to grant applications. The Field Services Division worked
with public libraries to secure federal grant funding through these acts.

The Director and Librarian of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission oversees the operations of that agency's divisions through which
his/her
duties and responsibilities are carried out. This series consists of donation forms and correspondence
with
donors concerning money, books and other items donated to the Texas State
Library and Archives Commission. Records range in date from 1952 to 1968
and
1988 to 1993. Donor forms are attached to relevant correspondence and
usually
contain a brief description of the gift, the donor's name and address, the
date, and the division of the State Library where the gift was placed. By
the
mid-1960s a typed donor form had replaced most of the correspondence and is
usually the only item present which documents the donation. These forms
were
rarely signed. It is quite possible that correspondence concerning the
donation
can be found in the miscellaneous files or in the correspondence found in
previous library accessions. Donor forms for 1969-1983 were interfiled with
the
Director's correspondence and can be found in the series Correspondence
and
subject files (see the files labeled Gifts.)

Records appear to be arranged in roughly reverse
chronological
