Physical Description
|
Records in this series are files in both hard and soft cover manila folders. Enclosures are attached using Treasury tags.
Records for the OMELCO Special Working Group on Nationality (1989-1991) were originally held in a lever-arch file. The contents are hole-punched in the top left-hand corner suggesting that they were originally maintained in manila folders, using Treasury tags, and were subsequently transferred to their present format.
