Virginia League for Nursing records 6.5 Linear Feet

The Virgina League for Nursing (VLN) records are comprised of materials documenting the management of the VLN. The materials offer insight into the logistical and financial operations of the VLN, as well as annual records and statistics of how the organization changed over the years of its operation. While the VLN and its predecessor organizations have existed since 1917, the contents of this collection comprise primarily of material dating from 1966-2000. Additional material from outlying years exists within the collection, but are not significant enough in volume to fully represent of the VLN's actions during that time. Additional material such as membership lists, board meeting minutes, and financial records from the VLN and its predecessors for the years 1919-1942 can be found in the Virginia Nurses Association records (1986-05-05).

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
