Processing information

The series has been given six artificial sub-series divisions reflecting the different document types and the functions of the records. Due to the nature of the material, some of the content overlaps between the first two sub-series (Correspondence and Personal papers), and the last two sub-series (Professional papers and Financial records and legal documents). Sub-series 2.4: Professional papers has been further divided into subject categories that reflect Marion Page’s career and the organisations with which she was involved.
