Included are: correspondence, reports, memoranda, surveys, questionnaires, legal and financial documents, press releases, New York State bills and other government documents concerning pensions, calendars of the the Board of Estimate and Apportionment of New York City containing communications from the Committee, and printed material, 1929-1932. These document the formation of the Committee, its efforts to obtain salary increases, pensions (this was accomplished in 1937 when the city librarians joined the New York State pension system), and uniform job titles for the librarians. Correspondence is among Committee officers and members, and with New York City officials; directors and trustees of the three library systems, and of libraries in other cities; the Carnegie Corporation; United Staff Associations of the Public Libraries of New York City; and with civic, educational, and women' s organizations.
