Administrative Information
Arrangement
This is an unprocessed collection. Any arrangement reflects either a pre-existing order from the records' creators or previous custodians, or preliminary sorting performed by staff.
Materials are arranged in the order in which they were received from the donor. The folder names are unrelated to the actual contents. Excepting a history folder at the front each folder is dated by post-it and filed chronologically by year, newest to oldest.
Location of Collection
(MASC STAFF USE) 2-40-02-2Acquisition Information
Pamela Duran, associate director of the International Center at WSU, donated these materials to the Washington State University Libraries on May 28, 2024, where they were retained as UA2024-04.
Processing Note
Materials were housed as received, and have not been evaluated. Unwanted materials may be discarded.
Related Materials
WSU MASC holds, as of early 2025, approximately eleven other processed collections or unprocessed accessions from the Office of International Programs. However, most of those predate a 1970s/1980s reorganization which would have brought ESL type of work into the program; likely only UA1998-01 and UA1998-04 might contain materials relevant to the IALC.
