Key to field notebooks, 1961-1972

Series VII contains 162 small notebooks that Kellogg used to take handwritten notes while traveling and at conferences, meetings, and in the field both in the United States and abroad. Many of the notebooks have writing on only a few pages, and the handwriting is often difficult to decipher. Kellogg explains his note-taking methods in an inventory he created, which can be found at the beginning of the series. Notebooks 120, 129, 138, 154, 159, 165, and 168-192 are listed in the inventory but not present in the collection. This series is arranged chronologically.
