A comprehensive history of the Club can be found in folder 1. Included is a list of the members from the Club's founding through 1995. The bulk of the collection consists of annual programs (also called yearbooks). The programs give the theme for the year, reading lists, club officers, and a record of the meetings. Many of the programs 1935-1969 have hand-decorated covers illustrating the year's theme or topic. Some papers given at meetings, as well as reading source materials, are present.
