 Arrangement

The finding aid for the Fred Fehl Dance Collection is a conflation of the original inventory (which due to size is broken into two parts) created in 2001, and of a small addition that was catalogued in 2006. Currently the addition is described only by a Folder List which has been appended to the original inventory, using the series arrangement established with the original inventory and continuing the box and folder numbering sequence. The Scope and Contents note does not make reference to the addition.
