The Papers of the League of Women Voters of Cache County (LWVCC) cover the period from 1970 to 2003. The LWVCC is a local chapter of the League of Women Voters of Utah and the League of Women Voters of the United States. The collection includes material not only from the LWVCC, but also from the state and national leagues. The LWVCC has been active in local as well as state and national politics throughout its existence, and has served the community in a variety of ways, including voter registration and education.

This series is contained in two boxes and the material is organized chronologically.

The series contains numerous items such as ledger sheets, finance drive records, IRS materials, cancelled checks, membership lists and vouchers. The third series is also organized chronologically. The fourth and largest series contains nine boxes concerning the various reports on projects and studies carried out by the LWVCC. These projects range from air pollution to youth services, and include such topics as the Equal Rights Amendment, different forms of city and county government, mosquito abatement, and spousal abuse. These reports provide a rich supply of information on local and national political issues, the history of Cache County, and the history of the LWVCC.
