Extent:
123 linear ft. (294 boxes)
Abstract:
Collected Document Groups (CDGs) are collections for which the Swarthmore College Peace Collection has only some material from the organizations and individuals, collected by various entities through the years. In a small number of cases, the SCPC is the official repository for a CDG, but it was not given Document Group (DG) status because of the limited amount of material, or because it does not reflect the donor's full activities. Collected Document Group: Category B (CDG-B) consists of organizations or individuals based outside of the United States.
