     These are the records of the Library Staff Association, which
functioned from the 1930s through 1996.  The Association began as a
service and social organization, membership in which was automatic
for all library staff.  Its activities included maintaining the
staff room, sponsoring social functions, and recognizing staff
members on special occasions.  The records contain reports from
the Association's standing committees -- the Executive Board, the
Social, Publications, Gifts and Flowers, and Staff Room
Committees -- and from several special committees convened as
necessary.

     The Staff Association ceased to function as an organization in
1996, although it was not formally dissolved until 1999.  The
majority of its functions had been taken over by the following
committees: the Staff Development Committee, formed in 1981; the SPA
Forum, begun in April 1994; the Health and Safety Committee, begun
in November 1995; and the Employee Appreciation and Recognition
Committee, begun in March 1996.
