New Finding Aids for UMaine Records on Digital Commons

More finding aids for University of Maine records held by Fogler Library have been added to the finding aid page on Digital Commons. The most recent finding aid is for the papers of former faculty member David C. Smith, who was a widely recognized historian and lectured nationally and internationally on such topics as history, political science, climatology, agriculture, paper industry, literature, and popular culture. The records cover Smith’s academic career at the University of Maine, but also his political work and time serving on numerous professional and community groups.
