Fonds las-60 - Alberta Crown Attorneys' Association fonds

Fonds consists of records maintained by individual executive and committee members in the course of conducting the business of the ACAA from their own places of employment. Fonds is arranged in 3 series: 1) Executive and members' manuals, minutes and incorporation documents, 2) Briefs, reports and collected reference material, and 3) Executive members' and committee chair's records. Executive members and committee chairs whose records are included here are Willard Willms, Cliff Purvis, I. Yaverbaun, E.O. (Orest) Yereniuk, Martin Elton, Gordon Falconer and Grant Nickless. Activities reflected in the records include liaison with the attorney general regarding working conditions and remuneration for crown attorneys, organization of conferences, monitoring public perceptions of crown attorneys, and other matters. Includes executive manuals, correspondence, minutes of executive meetings and annual general meetings, some committee meetings, and reports produced by the ACAA. Records of most committees established by the association are not included in this fonds, the exception being the Ways and Means Committee. The newsletter which the association distributed is also not included among the records. Fonds also includes a 1967 photograph of the inaugural meeting of crown prosecutors, prior to the establishment of the ACAA, and a photo of the hockey team. The records never formed part of a single record-keeping system.
