Mary H. Littlemeyer ArchivesThe institutional archives of the AAMC, known as the Mary H. Littlemeyer Archives, was established in 1968 around the records gathered by the AAMC's first staff member, Fred Zappfe, M.D. Ms. Littlemeyer began with the items collected over Dr. Zappfe's 50 years with the association and gradually expanded the collection as the association moved from Evanston, Ill., to Dupont Circle in Washington, D.C., to its present headquarters at 2450 N St., N.W. Ms. Littlemeyer managed the Archives until her retirement in 1993. Her collection policy was intended to ensure adequate and complete documentation of the association, its origin, development, policies, and activities. She implemented this policy by identifying and preserving association records having long term value as documentation of AAMC's legal basis and organizational structure, and as documentation of AAMC's programs and activities. Archives CollectionThe AAMC Archives collects and preserves records relating to the history, governance, and programs of the Association of American Medical Colleges. The oldest document in the collection is the proceedings of the AAMC's founding in 1876. Other documents include program specific and association-wide newsletters, group directories and agendas, and a full run of Academic Medicine, the association's peer-reviewed journal. Constituents and other qualified researchers are welcome to make an appointment to access the collection. The materials do not circulate, but may be used on site. Copying is permitted if it does not injure the records. For an appointment, contact the archives staff: Marian Taliaferro
