                <text>The Jacob Stefferud papers document his work as chief clerk for the Norwegian America Line in New York and Minneapolis, his role as acting consul for Norway, and his service as a commissioner for Nordmanns-Forbundet. The digitized selections highlight Stefferud’s World War II activities, including lecture materials on Norway and the war, records from the Norwegian Clothing Drive and the Norwegian Relief Committee of Minneapolis, photographs and meeting books related to Camp Little Norway and the Camp Little Norway Association, correspondence concerning the Norwegian Consulate in Minneapolis, and letters with Stefferud’s family and friends in occupied Norway. The collection also contains sixteen 16mm publicity films created to support relief efforts.&#13;
