Its name changed in 1973 to Division of Archives and Manuscripts. In the early 1980's it merged with the Special Collections Division of the UTA Libraries.

 Scope and Contents

The bulk of the correspondence is by or to Dr. George N. Green, one of the founders of the Texas Labor Archives, and Robert A. Gamble, later Director of the Division of Archives and Manuscripts. Included are founding documents of the Texas Labor Archives along with early brochures, clippings, news releases, and annual progress reports, as well as reports of the library committee organized to establish the Special Collections Division. The correspondence in the collection primarily involves negotiations between donors and archivists.
