Historical NoteReturn to Top
For many years Asael Carlyle Lambert was an outstanding figure in education, administration, and planning in Utah, Idaho, and California. Primarily, from 1925 through 1950, he was directly associated with Brigham Young University. During these years he served Brigham Young University as professor of Education, professor of Educational Administration, dean of the Graduate School, and as administrative director of University Libraries. During this period he was also active as consultant and analyst on problems of public school organization, support, and administration; problems of state government; financing of public education; and other educationally related public concerns. Some of the programs he surveyed and reported on were the Sevier County Consolidated School District; Provo City School District; Alpine Consolidated School District; school districts within the counties of Carbon, Tooele, San Pete, and Box Elder; Salt Lake School District; the State Department of Public Instruction; Utah State Teachers Association; and others. For each of these studies a prepared report was filed. Lambert served the State of Utah as consultant, editor, and compiler of the Governor's Fact-Finding Body in 1940. In addition, he assisted the Utah Legislative Committee on Utah Governmental Units, The Tax Study Committee of the Utah State Legislature, and the Utah Legislative Council. He was special consultant to the governor of the State of Utah on Organization and Administration of Public Education and of Public Relief and Assistance from January to March of 1950. He was professional director of the Utah Governor's School Study Committee, 1963-1964. For several years, 1952 to 1970, he was consultant and writer of Special Research Reports for the president of Brigham Young University. His duties in California from 1951-1962 included executive dean and dean of the College, Los Angeles State College and successively administrative dean, dean of the College, and director of the Building Program and Projects of Los Angeles State College, including the San Fernando Valley State College. He held many positions in the priesthood quorums in wards and stakes of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Lambert attended Ricks College, Idaho; Brigham Young University, Utah; and Stanford University, California, from which institution he received his Ph.D. in 1935. He received awards for outstanding scholarship from each institution he attended. He held membership in many scholarly organizations and is listed in Who's Who in America, Who's Who in American Education, and Who Knows - And What.
Asael Carlyle Lambert was born in Kamas, Utah, on 9 March 1893. In 1916 he married Florence Smith Ballif. They were the parents of six children. After his first wife's death, he married Margaret Sayer Marr in 1949. Lambert died in 1983.
Content DescriptionReturn to Top
The Asael Carlyle Lambert papers (1929-1972) document Lambert's life as a Utah and California educator. Part of the collection covers the history and development of early Latter-day Saint scriptures. It contains origins, developments, criticisms, analyses, and exposes of these scriptures. It traces economic, political, and sociological situations and implications resulting from the gathering and the early migrations of the large numbers of people involved in this religious movement, once objectionable to many of their fellow citizens. A related section deals with Joseph Smith Jr., his life, and his activities pursuant to the founding and development of Mormonism. There is material dealing with practices, rituals, and doctrines propounded by the early Latter-day Saint leaders. The material includes a comparative study of LDS theology and Freemasonry--the rites, symbols, oaths, historical development, and their inter-relationships. It contains pamphlets and papers written and published by various researchers. Lambert extends this comparison to the symbols, oaths, and rituals of other secret societies and to quasi-religious organizations. In some instances these findings appear to him to be correlated with Latter day Saint practices and teachings. The collection contains Lambert's notebooks, which are philosophical in nature and discuss the findings and conclusions resulting from his detailed, deep search for the truth behind the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He investigates, in depth, such subjects as "The Name of God,""The Devil,""The Serpent,""The Moon,""Blood," etc., as factors or components of religion or of secret societies.
The last part of the collection is material relating to the study of Utah's school systems--its taxation loads, teachers, buildings, and administration--made by a Utah School Study Committee of which Dr. Lambert was staff director. This study was made during the administration of Governor George D. Clyde. There is also a report of the Los Angeles State College classroom capacity. There are also two oversize portfolios of facsimiles relating to the Book of Mormon and The Book of Abraham, and a separate chart pertaining to the editions of The Doctrine and Covenants.

Includes three volumes. Volume 1: A. C. Lambert notes: "Some exposes that exist in printed form have not yet been collected and included in this 'book,' but all that are known to this notemaker and to one or two reliable students of this field are listed here, by date, if the date has been determined, and by the place in which a copy exists if it has not already been obtained and included here." Volume 2: A. C. Lambert notes: "In this volume two of the published exposes are items collected after the large book of exposes had become filled and unwieldy to handle. In this volume two are entries of existing exposes still not collected and included; the work and expense, of collecting copies of the published exposes is virtually endless." Volume 3: A Supplement to the Published Exposes of the Mormon Temple Ceremonies of Endowment.
