The Information Services Division is pleased to share resources from its archival collection, including content from the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs and its predecessors, the Journal of Studies on Alcohol, and the Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol.
The new section of the web site features the history of the Center, the Journal, the Summer School, and the Library. The site is divided into three major sections: CAS Publications, Notable People, and Summer School Archives. The short, descriptive paragraphs on each page are complemented with images from the CAS historical collection, many of them highlighted in previous issues of the newsletter, such as the Alco-Calculator, the Yale Posters on Alcoholism, and the Classified Abstract Archive of the Alcohol Literature.
The publications are organized under Books, Fact Sheets, Monograph Series, Pamphlet Series, Memoirs, and Lay Supplements, with full texts or the option to request the resource from the library.
The page presenting notable people of CAS so far includes Selden D. Bacon, Anthony Carpenter, Leon Greenberg, Howard W. Haggard, Yandell Henderson, E. M. Jellinek, Mark Keller, and Raymond McCarthy. Each individual page is divided into a brief introduction, biography, highlights, publications, and additional resources of the scholar, a result of the biographical and historical research at the library in the past eight years.
–Originally published in the December 2015 issue of the CAS Information Services Newsletter. The images show the archived pages from 2015, partly preserved in the Internet Archive. The links have been updated to point to the current pages.
