ABSTRACT:  Records, including bylaws, meeting minutes and newsletters, of the International Tesla Society, a Colorado Springs based organization whose purpose included increasing awareness of Nikola Tesla and his inventions, the presentation of Tesla symposiums, and the maintenance of the Tesla museum. The International Tesla Society declared bankruptcy in 1999. 

ARRANGEMENT:  This collection has been arranged alphabetically, then chronologically. Board meeting minutes were originally housed in a 3-ring notebook and were removed to folders for better preservation. A copy of Proceedings of the 1986 International Tesla Symposium and vol. VI, no. 2 of Extraordinary Science (1994) were transferred to the published materials portion of Special Collections. 

RESTRICTIONS:  There are no access restrictions on the materials, and the collection is open to all members of the public. However, the researcher assumes full responsibility for conforming with the laws of libel, privacy, and copyright which may be involved in the use of this collection. 

PROCESSING:  This collection was processed, and a finding aid written, by Donna McCrea in June, 2002.
