Overview and metadata sections
The Annual Reports Collection consists of annual and similar reports from service agencies, hospitals, organizations, and government agencies, mostly within the Greater Philadelphia area. Reports are listed by organization or institutional name.
The collection is arranged alphabetically by organization name, with a few exceptions at the end.
This is an artificial collection which began in 1969. Annual reports were pulled from other collections to create this collection.
Collection processed and finding aid prepared in June 2019 by Holly Beth Wilson, Processing Archivist.
Titles of publications in the Annual Reports Collection have been transcribed as found. In certain instances, researchers will find language in these folder titles that is insensitive, bigoted, or racially insensitive. Text written by the archivist in the finding aid, such as the description of collection, does not include this language except when quoting directly from a document within the collection which may aid understanding or discoverability. The archivist adhered to institutional policy that prescribes archivist-supplied text in the finding aid be inclusive and appropriate for a modern context. See the SCRC Statement on Potentially Harmful Language for more information.
