{"value"=>"<p>Series III: General Administrative Files contains the general correspondence files of the office, as well as individual files for the work of directors and staff members. This series documents the administrative work of the fund in support of its research program, but the files do not discuss individual projects in great detail. The files primarily consist of correspondence and memoranda. The office papers of high-level administrators, including Edward Filene, August Heckscher, Murray Rossant, and Richard Leone are arranged by surname, though files dated prior to 1970 are relatively incomplete. Administrative papers of associate directors, fund economists, and research directors, including Isador Lubin and Bernard Wasow, are also included and arranged by surname. Support staff work is documented in the editorial and events files. Editorial files discuss the general editorial practices of the fund, while a small run of project files, arranged alphabetically by author, document the revision process for books and reports. These complement the more complete files in Series IV, where most project-specific editorial correspondence and memoranda is found arranged within individual project files. Event files cover the planning of publication release parties and other special events hosted by the fund. This series also holds materials discussing the fund's headquarters on the Upper East Side of Manhattan and the fund's contributions to the City of New York in lieu of taxes.</p> <p>Arrangement is alphabetical by subject or name.</p>"}
