Description The William O. Field Papers represents a tremendous record of glacier observations throughout the world, with an emphasis on Alaska. The majority of glaciological activities throughout the twentieth century bore Field's fingerprints in some way and his collection reflects this, touching on his roles as observer, planner, coordinator, editor, liaison, consultant, mentor, and authority of all matters pertaining to North American glaciers.
