by the Social Science Research Council in 1929, is steadily
becoming national in scope, and the report of another year's work
in Virginia affords good evidence for this contention. While the project
for the survey and collection of social science source materials in
this State originated with the Institute for Research in the Social Sciences
and the Library of the University of Virginia, its inception was
made possible by the recommendation of the Joint Committee on Materials
for Research of the SSRC and the American Council of Learned
Societies;1

1931), page 7.
and during the past two or three years the activity of other
national and local organizations along the same line has further demonstrated
its fundamental importance for all related fields of scholarship. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
