Series 6: MATERIALS FROM LILLIAN HODDESON

Note: Boxes 124-130 were created from material that was accessioned September 27, 2002, from Professor Lillian Hoddeson who had held this additional material in an office in Engineering Sciences Building since the main body of Bardeen materials had been moved out of his office in 1991-92. The 2002 addition was processed upon receipt and added to the end of the existing collection, and modifications were made to the existing finding aid.
