11. Science, (209 boxes)
Subseries 1 - 11
This section has been divided into fifteen disparate thematic sub-sections, which reflect the extraordinary breadth of Linus Pauling's scientific biography. Generally speaking, materials have been arranged and cataloged according to research topic. However, three sub-sections - Institutions, Organizations and Committees - reflect the institutional architecture either supporting or directing Pauling's work during specific periods of his life. For example, the bulk of Special Collections' holdings relating to Pauling's scientific war work have been cataloged under the rubric "Institutions" and sub-sorted, for instance, the National Defense Research Committee, Office of Naval Research, etc. A similar approach has been taken with much of Pauling's work sponsored by the Guggenheim Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation, Ford Foundation, et al. The science section is comprised of original manuscript research notes, correspondence, figures, experimental data, non-Pauling reprints and other scientific research materials.
