{"value"=>"<p>The Books subseries is organized chronologically and shows evidence of Meyer's comprehensive research methods. For example, files for <span class=\"title\">The Art Museum: Power, Money, Ethics</span> hold correspondence, questionnaires, and transcripts of interviews Meyer conducted with most of the major curators and museum directors in New York City in the 1970s. Books files generally hold correspondence with publishers, galley proofs, promotional material, and information about book tours. Files for most titles also include clippings of reviews and letters from readers responding to the books. Files for <span class=\"title\">The Plundered Past</span> include galley proofs of <span class=\"title\">The New Yorker</span> magazine's serialization of the book. Files for four books Meyer co-authored with his wife Shareen Blair Brysac are indicated. Several files of correspondence between Meyer and his literary agents are also included in this section.</p>"}
