Elliott Irving Organick papers, 19541-1986

The Elliott Irving Organick papers (1941-1986) contain information gathered for research on the Ada to Silicon project. Also included are class materials, correspondence, conference and symposium papers, graduate student records, manuals, reviews of papers, proposals, grants, research papers, reports, and financial records. Material on the Burroughs Corp., such as correspondence, contracts, lecture material, and other material are included. Religious records and material collected while serving in leadership positions in the Association for Computing Machinery, the Special Interest Group on Computer Science Education, and other professional organizations are included as well. Copies of book manuscripts and other works are also contained in the collection.

It should be noted that only a preliminary organization of the papers has been done. Time did not allow for a thorough separation of the research papers from the correspondence, so many research papers are found among the folders containing correspondence. Likewise, correspondence is also intermixed in the folders of research papers.
