- catalog abstract "This series holds biographical information on every Harvard graduate or officer from 1636-1930 and significant numbers of Harvard graduates, faculty, administrative staff, visitors, and tangentially-related persons from later years. Excluded from the comprehensiveness of early years are persons who did not hold academic or administrative office and did not recieve a degree. Thus, while most Harvard alumni are included in the series, a student who did not obtain a degree or an employee whose role was clerical is unlikely to be included. Each file contains at least basic biographical information. For many individuals, the published information in the Quinquennial Catalogue is merely a small amount of the available information in the file; additional information in the file may include newsclippings, obituaries, biographies, autobiographies, memoirs, memorial tributes, or ephemera. For most of the earliest graduates, the only information available is recorded on a data card. For more recent graduates, the file includes an obituary. For most individuals prominent in the 20th century, there are newsclippings which often consist of obituaries, Harvard University News Office press releases, or memorial minutes.".
