Scope and Contents

The Cleaveland Cabinet series consists of catalogues, research, and material from Bowdoin’s Geology Department relating to the mineral collections that resided in the original Cabinet. The series includes correspondence from various other geologic organizations, notably the Laval Institute in Quebec, Canada, during the re-cataloging process in the 1970s. The series also contains photographs and slides of minerals and rocks within the collection along with oversized bound catalogues of mineralogy, petrology, and paleontology that originated from the Geology Department. These oversized folios are in the Folio collection.
