Collection Organization

The George B. Clemans collection consists of research files and interviews assembled by Dr. Clemans when writing a history of the chemistry department at Bowling Green State University. The materials were used in the production of Clemans' book: Chemistry 100: A Centennial History of the Chemistry Department at Bowling Green State University.

The chapter research files include research notes, copies of course catalogs, departmental and personal correspondence, newspaper articles and photographs. The correspondence with Paul Obringer include information about the book's publication format and logistics. Reminiscences by faculty and staff, which provide a personal perspective, are captured through handwritten transcripts and audio tapes of interviews.
