{"value"=>"<p>This series is made up of alphabetical subject files that are organized (and titled) by topical keywords, institution names, and Times departments and newspaper sections. Files contain memoranda between various departments and cover a range of topics, including staff assignments, department assessments, department budgets, fact-checking and other coverage complaints from story subjects and readers, and space and page make-up decisions. Present here are memoranda about launching several new sections, starting with the weekend section in 1976, and followed by Sports Monday, Science Times, Living, and Home. These files concern financial analysis and circulation prospects for the different sections, as well as the management's editorial approach to coverage, staffing problems, working conditions in the department, and general publication planning.</p> <p>Of note are the files on Cultural News and Arts and Leisure. As a former drama critic, Gelb took special interest in The Times' culture coverage. These files concern the operations of the culture department, which employed the Times' critics and reporters on art, architecture, theater, music, television, restaurants, and the daily book review - not to be confused with the Sunday Book Review. The files hold memoranda between Gelb and the cultural editors, in particular Seymour Peck, William Honan, and Marvin Siegel. Included are plans to restructure the culture department and readers' mail. Also of note are the New York Times Magazine and Magazine Part II files that reveal the paper's special section development process, as well as conflicts between advertising and editorial space and decisions regarding the special use of color in the section.</p> <p>Files are arranged alphabetically by file title. Entries without box and folder numbers cross-reference related material in other files.</p>"}
