Creator: From the Collection: American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio
Published / Created: circa 1970-1975
Provenance: Gift of the ACLU of Ohio, 2006. The ACLU of Ohio Kent State Project records appear to have been promised to Yale just after the 1979 settlement. The attorneys and the families were concerned that if the materials were deposited with a quasi-governmental organization such as the Ohio Historical Society, they might be mishandled or manipulated, thus endangering the historical record -- so great was the distrust of government officials after the protracted legal battle for justice. The materials had been stored in a Columbus, Ohio office for some years, and in 1995 the ACLU of Ohio staff had no record of the fact that the records had been promised to Yale. That year the files were deposited at Princeton University, the official repository of the national American Civil Liberties Union. After the previous arrangement came to light, the records were shipped from Princeton to Yale in 2002, and a formal deed of gift was signed in 2006.
