Description

This narrative guide to the superb women’s history collections at the Wisconsin Historical Society is fully updated and revised, building upon earlier editions published between 1975 and 1982. It directs researchers to documentation of women’s activities nationally and in Wisconsin, collections that are especially rich in resources on political movements for women’s suffrage, temperance, and abolition and on women in the motion picture and television industries.

Note: This totally updated and revised fifth edition was published in November 1997. But it has the same LC number (79-17522) and ISBN (0-87020-189-1) as the previous edition (the Fourth Edition), which was entitled Women’s History at the Wisconsin Historical Society, written by James P. Danky and published in 1982.

Notes

Description
The library, archives, iconographic collections, museum, and film archives of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin (Madison) are described, with an emphasis on the history of women in the United States and Canada. The library features works on frontier/utopian communities, ethnic groups, women's organizations, women and labor unions, women's political groups outside the mainstream, family life, spiritualism, genealogy, and anthropology. The archives are a major repository for manuscripts of private individuals and organizations and for Wisconsin state, county, and local governmental records, legal documents, speeches, scrapbooks, and reminiscences. Topics of collections include labor, social action, theater, and mass communications. Wisconsin manuscripts document all facets of the state's history and include diaries, correspondence, interviews, and articles. The iconographic collection consists of photographs, lithographs, paintings, drawings, posters, cartoons, postcards, lantern slides, magazine clippings and advertisements, catalogs, business cards, and other graphics. The film archive contains an extensive United Artists film collection, scripts from the Warner collection, silent films, and television programs. Finding aids, such as guides and files, are identified for each section of the historical society. (KC)
