Abstract

This article concludes the history of the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, California, set up by Herbert Hoover after the First World War for the purpose of collecting the records of contemporary history as it was taking place. The story continues from 1960, when Dr W. Glenn Campbell was appointed director and when substantial budget increases soon led to corresponding increases in acquisitions and related research projects. Despite student unrest in the 1960s, the Institution continued to thrive and develop closer relations with Stanford. The Chinese and Russian collections in particular grew considerably. The first part of this article appeared in vol. 17, no. 1 (March 2001), pp. 3-19, of this journal.
