INFORMATION SERVICE,, 1972-1987

The National Women's Education Fund records span the years 1972 to 1987, with the bulk of the material dating from 1974 to 1984. The collection includes a full set of the minutes of the Executive Board, as well as the minutes of a few other committees. The chief part of the collection is made up the records of the NWEF office in Washington, D.C., including general and fundraising correspondence, and the administrative files of the Campaign Techniques Institutes and other programs which the NWEF sponsored. There are also materials related to specific programs. For instance, the collection contains information on policy issues that was used in conjunction with the Resource and Technical Assistance Service. Similarly, the records encompass a complete set of election data which was compiled by the Women's Election Central.

There are not many examples of the NWEF's published work, except for the CAMPAIGN WORKBOOK, THE WOMAN ELECTED OFFICIAL, and several of the MODEL POLITICAL CAMPAIGN modules. There are, however, notes and draft copies of studies that the NWEF helped prepare. Finally, the collection contains items in various formats, such as audio-visual materials used in training, and ephemera from women's election campaigns, including broadsides, leaflets, posters and buttons.
