The Richard B. Russell, Jr. Collection, Subgroup C, Series XV: General is composed mainly of correspondence and printed materials
relating to federal agencies and departments. Arrangement is chronological by latest date, and within each year date, file
headings are by agency or by subject and arranged alphabetically. Because of the close relationship between the passage of
legislation by the Congress and its implementation by the federal government, there is significant overlap between the General
series and the Legislative series. Any additional non-textual materials originally filed with papers were removed for preservation
purposes and improved access. These materials include photographs, audiovisual items, scrapbooks, vertical files, memorabilia,
and books.

available to researchers; however, this series must be reviewed by Russell Library staff prior to patron use. Family correspondence,
excluding correspondence with Ina Dillard Russell and Richard B. Russell, Sr., is restricted. With the exception of family
correspondence and some incoming correspondence, the documents were created primarily by Russell and his office staff. The
general subject matter includes such topics as national defense, foreign policy, Vietnam, federal judgeships, the Warren Commission,
office matters, legislation, and family affairs.
