The John M. Meek Collection is a small collection which includes material on aspects of the organization of the 1968 Democratic National Convention, from hotel accommodations to first aid and security to requests from committees and entertainers to appear at the convention. While there is a copy of the proceedings of the convention, there is little else in the papers that relates to the event as it occurred. Most materials concern preliminary preparations for the convention. A small photograph collection is also included in the collection.

Arrangement
Items with a recorded provenance were intellectually and physically placed with the materials of the Maps Series; however, a record of their provenance is kept with annotations on the items, separation flags in the items' originating locations, and processing notes in the finding aid. Items in the Maps series are arranged by provenance. Those items with a known provenance were arranged by their originating locations: series, box, folder, and order within folder. Items without a specified provenance were kept in the order they were found in the maps folders.
