Organizational History:

Cooperative Extension in Washington began in 1915, initially known as Agricultural Extension. It is an effort of the federal Department of Agriculture, Washington State University, and the county governments that participate, which is that of most counties.

The activities of the Extension Service are documented copiously until about 1970, after which the documentation is more sparse and in the form of statements of objectives and summary reports of activities.

Other Extension Service records are maintained at the University Archives. More significant bodies of records are Archives 87 and Archives 189. Researchers may wish to consult various lists and catalogs at the Archives, as this list is not exhaustive.
