This series contains the minutes from the special, monthly, and annual meetings by the Board of Directors of the Children's Hospital Society. In addition, the volumes include minutes and monthly reports from the many standing committees which were established to adminster, maintain, and develop programs for the Children's Hospital. Represented committees include: Executive, Hospital, Finance, Land and Building, House, Sewing, Clinic, Publicity and Public Relations, Education, and Entertainment. The volumes also include monthly reports from the Administrator and Matron. The vast range of information contained in these volumes precludes it from being identified individually, but researchers can discover the daily activities, operational concerns, planning, and initiatives of the hospital staff and volunteers over a fifty-year period. The volumes of minutes are arranged chronologically, and within each minute book, chronologically by meeting date.
