Notes
Original file included executive correspondence, executive reports and staff records that have been separated into M200 / I / E: Executive records and M200 / I / C: Staff and membership records, due to the fact that the executive correspondence in original file did not meet the Club meeting minutes and reports criteria for this Sub-Series. The staff records in original file were separated into the M200 / I / C / i Sub-Series, as those records pertained to A.C.C. staff information. UIAA General Assembly and Council Meeting 1988 report and meeting minutes have been separated in M200 / III / F. Separated files will contain the same title: Executive Club Reports, 1987 - 1988.
