Brochures, Papers, Theses and Dissertations collection
Scope and Contents
This collection consists of published and unpublished brochures, pamphlets, reports, essays, papers, theses, and dissertations, also known as gray literature, relating to Japanese Americans.

The materials address various subjects, including Japanese Americans, mental illness, resettlement in Chicago, Nisei military service, education, employment, Japanese American history in Sacramento, CA, and more.
The collection is a mix of original material and photocopies, and some items may have access or use restrictions imposed by the donor or author. If applicable, the restrictions are noted in the item-level record.

Arrangement
This collection is the result of combining three separate, but similar sets of material that were found in the Legacy Center's holdings in an uncataloged state. For expediency, each set remains in its pre-existing order. There may be overlap between the three sets of material with regard to dates, type of material, and authors.
Items in Series 1 (Boxes 1 and 2) are in roughly chronological order.
Items in Series 2 (Boxes 3 through 6) are in alphabetical order by author's last name.
Items in Series 3 (Boxes 7 and 8) are in roughly chronological order.
Note that many items in Series 3 are duplicates of items in Series 2.
