Conditions Governing Access
The Dan Rios papers are currently undergoing processing and are open for research. The department has internal documentation over what is in individual envelopes and can search for people, places, and events from 1968 - 2001 in advance of any visits so that we can ensure we have materials on hand for researchers.

Please submit requests for archival materials at least 24 hours in advance of desired appointment. Materials requested over the weekend will be available on the following Tuesday at the earliest.

Arrangement
Arrangement is to the envelope level. Original order was kept in the arrangement of the negatives, so they are not sequentially in order. Negatives were rehoused in archivally safe sleeves.
Description contains as much context as can be gleaned from the original envelopes. In some instances, there is not much context to envelopes other than a date of creation. Departmental employees can mediate reference queries based around specific dates of publication in the papers. Researchers can contact us at archives@csusm.edu if they do not find an image in this finding aid; as long as a date of publication is known, we can do a more detailed search of the negatives.
This finding aid will be updated with additional context in the future.
