F. Clippings, 1983/2014 100 Gigabytes

The Clippings series contains newspaper clippings—original newsprint as well as photocopies—compiled by Senator Rockefeller's staff for distribution to the Senator and other staff members. Clippings primarily span Rockefeller's tenure in the U.S. Senate, but some clippings date to his second term as governor of West Virginia. Staff compiled clippings about the day's events and also maintained clippings that mentioned Rockefeller. Most of the clippings are arranged by topic, publication, or date range. Clippings within files arranged by topic or publication generally are ordered chronologically. Some clippings arranged by date range are divided into morning and afternoon clippings, and these often are accompanied by indexes (tables of contents). Finally, some files separate clippings created by West Virginia media from clippings created by national outlets.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
