Processing Note

In 2018, Joyce Moore processed the collection and wrote the finding aid. In 2025, Tammi Kim rehoused and created the inventory for the 2025 addition. Digital content saved on optical discs and floppy disks were migrated from original storage media and normalized to standard preservation and access formats following UNLV Special Collections and Archives Digital Preservation guidelines. Folder arrangement was reorganized into topical groupings to assist in locating and identifying digital content. The digital files from CD-ROMs containing executable programs were created in versions of Windows before 2004 and were not migrated into access formats due to system incompatibility.
