52-61	General Materials Boxes 52-61 contain materials similar to some other teaching files and thus have been grouped with them. However, these may also be materials gathered by Olpin for background research or reference for his books. Or, he could have used them for both purposes. It is unclear exactly what they should be titled. Also, Olpin seemed to organize these files in a rough alphabetical order (see post-its on materials). This order has been maintained.

Box 22 contains the beginning of the Utah Artists Project materials. However, it was donated at an earlier date, thus is not with the rest of the project files. The Utah Artists Project materials (boxes 86-143) include notes, articles, correspondence, announcements, fliers, catalogs, biographies, writings, and various other ephemera on Utah artists, art venues, and subjects. These files have been kept in their original alphabetical order as much as possible.
