Other meeting-related papers, 1927-1969, undated

This series represents documents generated before and after Board of Trustee and Executive Committee meetings. The reports, which comprise most of the first subseries, summarize the activities to date of various departments, committees and museum officers. Committee chairmen or the museum director usually presented these reports for review and discussion by the Trustees. The reports included here are limited approximately to the years 1965 through 1975.

The second subseries documents the decisions reached by the Board or Executive Committee and memorialized as resolutions. Material consists of formal statements and related correspondence and dates primarily from 1925 to 1950, the same years that Fiske Kimball served as the museum's director.
