Library Administration

Records, 1905-1990
22 cubic feet


The records of the Library Directors from Belle Sweet to Eileen Hitchingham were transferred to University of Idaho Library Special Collections between 1970 and 1996. They were processed by Judith Nielsen between September and November 1997

Directors of the University of Idaho Library

John E. Bonebright was hired as a math and physics instructor by the university in 1893; added to these duties was the position of "librarian". When he went to full time teaching in the fall of 1896 he was replaced by Stella Maud Allen, an 1896 graduat e of the University. She organized the collection and began classifying books according to the Dewey Decimal system. Allen resigned in 1899 and Margaret B. McCallie, an 1898 graduate of the University was appointed as her successor. McCallie resigned in O ctober 1905. The library's first professionally trained head was M. Belle Sweet who assumed her position in November 1905, just months before the March 30, 1906 fire destroyed the administration building which housed the library. Sweet rebuilt the collect ion and remained as head librarian for 43 years, until her retirement in 1948. She was followed by Lee Zimmerman, 1948-1967, Warren Owens, 1968-1986, Eileen Hitchingham, 1987-1990, and Ron Force, 1990 to present. Associate Director Richard Beck served as interim head of the library between Zimmerman and Owens and again between Owens and Hitchingham. Beck's position was head of Public Services while Assistant Director Stanley Shepard was head of Technical Services.

Scope And Content

The records of the first four Library Administrators and two assistant administrators span the years 1906 to 1990.

Included in each official's records are correspondence and memos, minutes of meetings, budget preparation materials and other financial records. Material such as scrapbooks of clippings about the library and microfilm of the library shelf list which ar e not connected to a specific administration are in the final series.

Arrangement and Description

The records of M. Belle Sweet and Lee Zimmerman were in file cabinets and retain their received arrangement. The records of Warren Owens and Eileen Hitchingham were transferred to Special Collections at various times during and after their administrati ons and were put in alphabetical order during processing. The papers of Richard Beck and Stan Shepard which were sometimes in their own accession and sometimes in the files of the administrator were placed together and arranged alphabetically. Therefore, each official has his or her own alphabetical file; original folder headings were retained. Occasionally the material from one administration will overlap into the next administration.

Each director has his or her own series. The records of M. Belle Sweet are important in that they are the first records of the library extant, the previous records having been destroyed in the 1906 fire. It appears from typed notes in some of the folde rs that the papers were arranged after her departure and that some material was discarded. Copies of outgoing correspondence from 1906-1915 are in three letterpress books.

The papers of Lee Zimmerman may also have been sorted and arranged shortly after his retirement. The are arranged in broad subject areas, with specific related areas following. The first section of correspondence is an A-Z arrangement, with a few folde rs with specific names inserted. In the second correspondence section each folder has a specific organizational name. The university departmental correspondence is arranged by college, then department; in the following inventory the name of the college is underlined. A number of folders in this series concern the planning of the new library building which opened in 1957.

The papers of Warren Owens are in a single alphabetical file. In addition to library related correspondence, memos, budgets, etc., the records of his administration include references to the Barnard-Stockbridge photograph collection, the Basque book co llection, and the founding of ICOSAL (Idaho Council of State Academic Libraries).

Likewise, the papers of Eileen Hitchingham are in a single alphabetical file. Her records contain material relating to the University centennial celebration in 1989, as well as the usual library related correspondence and committee minutes.

The records of Associate Director Richard Beck, and Assistant Director Stanley Shepard are in Series V; each has his own sub-series. Beck was Associate Director for Public Services and his records include the staff attitude survey, committee records, a nd memos. Many of his papers are included in the records of the several directors under which he served.

Stanley Shepard was Assistant Director for Technical Services. Some of his correspondence concerns arrangements with commercial binderies, committees looking into the problems of conversion to the Library of Congress cataloging system and other technic al services committees, his work on ILA and PNLA Bibliography and Publications committees and his membership on the University of Idaho ROTC/Officer Education committee.

The final series contains material not identified with a specific administrator. Included are bound volumes of library expenditures from 1931 to 1956 (lacking only the records for 1946-1948), faculty and staff handbooks, library guides, the periodicals printout in microfiche form from 1978-1987, the microfilm of the library shelflist done in 1973 with the 1978 supplement, Robert Hook's notes for his history of the library which he wrote in 1972, and five scrapbooks, 1950 to 1988, with articles relating to the university library.

Monthly financial records were discarded. To preserve confidentiality of personnel records including applications and evaluations, and because the Human Resources Office of the University is the official repository of such records, the library's copies of these records were destroyed. Likewise time cards and other material concerning student workers was discarded. This reduced the records by 30 cubic feet.
