A Sampling of Past APPA Publications
Selected by Steve Glazner
1950s
1955-56
From 1926 until the early 1950s, APPA's publications consisted only of a proceedings of the
annual conference; no APPA publications are known to exist before 1926. Included in the
annual proceedings primarily were meeting minutes, papers presented on current campus
projects, and early attempts to collect and compare salaries and facilities costs. Since the first
publication of the APPA Newsletter in 1951, APPA has published industry news, membership
updates, research findings, operational and staffing guidelines, technical papers, and much
more via newsletters, magazines, books, monographs, and online formats. Here we've
included a small gallery of just a few of APPA's many publications from the past 60 years.
