MoreThe MeadWestvaco Research Reports contain various reports and materials created and used by forestry researchers at 14 research stations established and owned by MeadWestvaco from 1945 to 2006. The collection is broken down into four series which correspond to types of reports published.

The largest series contains research reports from each of the 14 research stations about fertilization, herbicide use, chemical debarking, pulpwood growth, stand yield and tree transportation cost analysis. The subject matter of individual reports varies greatly. The technical memoranda and information sheets are supplementary material. In 1945, what would become MeadWestvaco was called the "West Virginia Pulp and Paper Company," with David L. Luke as president. He was the grandson of the original founder William Luke, who founded the company in 1888. David L. Luke oversaw the purchase of many acres of forest in Pennsylvania, Maryland, the Virginias and the Carolinas, where company research stations were later established. His son, David Luke III, became president in 1963, and after that his other son, John A. Luke led the company. A member of the Luke family continues to hold the position of Chief Executive Officer, at present John A. Luke Jr., but the family no longer possesses majority stock ownership.
