Histoire archivistique
The archives of the League of Nations also include a number of archive groups, called "Private papers".
The term "Private papers" will be taken to mean "archives or papers, which have been subject to private ownership", the legal question of the original ownership being reserved.
These "Private papers" consist either of documents, which were prepared or used by high officials in the performance of or in connection with their functions, and which passed later through the hands of persons outside the Secretariat, or of genuinely private archives. In either case they are included in the League of Nations archives, but they reached them or were returned to them in some "special way" (gift, reintegration, bequest, etc.). They should therefore be set apart. There is, however, a certain analogy between them and the section files of the Secretariat archive group.

Note
Some Private Papers were scanned and rehoused in 2022 as part of the LONTAD project. Those boxes were labelled with Pp (i.e., Private Papers) to differentiate from the Photograph Collection, which was scanned and labelled as P.
Note
There is a jump in the numeric sequence starting at the end of the K.A. Chavichvili papers (P56) to the beginning of the René Claparède papers (Pp71). Boxes P54, P57 - P70 do not exist. This is likely due to the way that the boxes were initially labeled with some boxes including additional boxes indicated in alphabetical order, e.g., P24, P24A, P24B, etc.
