scopecontent: Scope and Contents of the Collection Catalogs, Registers and Directories date from 1837-2010. These materials are arranged in 10 series: Annual Catalogs, Courses of Instruction Booklets, Handbooks for Advisers, Handbooks for New Students, Summer Session Catalogs, Course Evaluations, Class Schedules, Calendars, Registers of Teachers and Students, and Directories. Annual catalogues published from the academic years 1837/1838-2010/2011 are the primary source of information about Mount Holyoke's requirements and academic program. These volumes document the steady expansion of the curriculum through the addition of new courses and programs, the emergence of opportunities for majoring or completing honors work in particular disciplines, and the option for graduate study. Catalogues have also included a statement of the College's mission; details about the campus, buildings, and the history of the school; information about tuition, fees, financial aid, and on-campus employment; enrollment statistics; details about residential life; and the calendar for each year. In addition, catalogues often list the names and terms of service of members of the Board of Trustees; the names and academic background of Mount Holyoke faculty and administrators; the names and home towns of students; and the names of Alumnae Association officers and Alumnae Club presidents. Catalogues for 1965/1966-1989/1990 are illustrated with photographs of students, faculty, and views of the campus. Supplements containing updates and corrections to the annual catalogue are available for 1888/1889, 1896/1897, circa 1900/1901, 1977-1981, 1985-1986, 1989-1992. The earliest supplement describes the new College Department developed when Mount Holyoke became a degree-granting institution in 1888. Since 2006, Mount Holyoke has prepared an online version of the annual catalogue. Catalogues for 1837/1838-1900/1901 are also available online. Courses of Instruction booklets (1908-1934, 1940-1942, 1959-1964) provide ad…

body: Historical Note The first official publication of Mount Holyoke Female Seminary was a catalogue issued in 1837 containing information about trustees, teachers, terms of admission, the course of study, the schedule for the year, Family Accommodations, and the Moral and Religious Influence at the school. Subsequent catalogues (with periodic updates) trace the growth of the institution and provide detailed information about the academic program and residential life for students at the College. These publications have been supplemented by courses of instruction booklets,, catalogues for summer sessions held during World War II, course evaluations, and handbooks providing guidance for new students as well as teachers and administrators serving as academic advisers. Class schedules were first issued in 1893 showing meeting times and locations and instructors of individual courses. Beginning in 1845, Mount Holyoke administrators compiled registers and directories listing names and addresses of teachers and students. Weekly calendars first issued in November 1905 initially listed events at the College. In 1983, these lists began including more detailed information about lectures, special programs, renovations to buildings, and other subjects of interest to members of the Mount Holyoke community.
