{"value"=>"<p>Series I documents the founding of the Cooperative League and its transition into the Twentieth Century Fund. The establishment and early history of the organization is recorded in corporate documents such as the charter, resolutions, and by-laws. Extracts from Records consist of a set of minutes and corporate documents collocated by fund staff for reference use, providing quick access to documentation of key events and important meetings in the organization's formative years. Endowment files discuss the expenditure and disposition of Filene's stock shares that were transferred to the fund in 1922 and represented the majority of the organization's income for its first decades. Files on Edward and Lincoln Filene were compiled by staff throughout the 20th century for reference use and short publications, and provide biographical data as well as historical information on William Filene's Sons Company and the Credit Union National Association.</p> <p>Arranged alphabetically by subject or format.</p>"}
