ACLU Background Material - News Items of Interest, undated
Scope and Contents
The records of the Logan Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) contain a variety of materials reflecting local chapter activity. A sizeable portion of the collection is comprised of monthly meeting minutes and agendas from 1983 until the beginning of 1994. The set of minutes is fairly complete for some years (1984, 1992) and incomplete for other years (1991). Following the meeting records are local case materials, including correspondence, handwritten notes, memorandums, newspaper clippings, and official court documents. There are also newsletters, social event fliers, letters to the editor, and other resource items (a statistical sheet, member directory, etc.) relating specifically to the internal affairs of the Logan chapter.
Also in the collection are news articles and background materials involving the ACLU. Included are newspaper clippings on specific local and Utah chapter cases, as well as issues of general concern to the state and the national agencies. The background files contain newsletters and organizing documents of the Utah Chapter as well as newsletters and official documents of the national organization. There are also miscellaneous items such as proposed legislation, a lobbying tract from the Christian Coalition, and an ACLU pamphlet, With Liberty and Justice for Women.
