Scope and Content Note

From the Collection:

Annie L. McPheeters donated the items in this collection in 1990 and continued donating until 1994. They include letters, reports, notes, newspaper clippings, brochures, journals, pamphlets and books.

Among the numerous gems in the collection are materials generated by Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. These consist of sorority by-laws, rituals, and policies on hazing. Other materials featured in the collection are minutes taken by the Utopian Literary Club, historical programs from Warren Memorial United Methodist Church, reports written by McPheeters on the Auburn Library branch, political brochures, and letters.

In addition, the collection has fascinating photographs and newspaper clippings covering a host of subjects. Some of these deal with early Atlanta libraries, local universities, Auburn Avenue businesses, race relations, and women's issues.

Currently, there are 31 boxes in the collection.
