Scope and Contents

From the Collection: The Ralph Vary Chamberlin papers (1890-1969) contain correspondence, articles, essays, research and biographical materials, class records, and news clippings. Most of the collection is concerned with entomology, or the study of insects. Various samples of insects retrived from the stomachs of toads made up a bulk of Chamberlin's research. Many of the papers in the collection are the results of the research. Other items include information on the University of Utah. Biographies of University faculty members are among the items in the collection.
