13. Biographical. 1910-1996.
Holdings in this vast section -- arranged both according to subject and format --
document a number of themes from Linus Pauling's remarkable, complex life. An eclectic
array of manuscript and typescript materials, correspondence, notebooks, newspaper
clippings, government documents, legal documents, tax documents and receipts have
been sorted into sub-sections labeled Academia, Political Issues, Legal, Business
& Financial, and Personal Materials & Family Correspondence. In addition, over 2,700
pages of loose-leaf scrapbooks compiled by the Paulings have been cataloged on the
item level and reside in the Biographical section. Digital versions of the Pauling
FBI files and scrapbooks are available upon patron request.
