Burroughs Corporation records. Speeches.
Scope and Content Note
Collection consists of speeches given by many employees at Burroughs. In the Unisys Archives, the speeches were arranged in three series: Executives, Security Analysts, and General. When the collection was examined at CBI, the series, Early Presidents, was added to more fully show the extent of this important part of the collection. In all series, transcripts are more common, but the cassette or reel-to-reel tapes are often included.
This is one series of the Burroughs Corporation Records (CBI 90). Please see the other series finding aids for further information regarding the Burroughs Corporation.
