Component identifier:
Series 14
Content Summary:

Peter Harrison was a long-standing member of two professional associations: the Royal Australian Planning Institute (and its predecessors, the Australian Planning Institute and Town and Country Planning Institute of Australia) and the Royal Australian Institute of Architects. A Life Fellow of RAIA, he resigned his fellowship in 1990 in protest at the policies of the ACT Chapter on the Canberra Metropolitan Plan. Harrison was also a Life Fellow of the Royal Australian Planning Institute. He was awarded the Institute's Sidney Luker Memorial Medal in 1972.

This series contains small groups of papers concerning Harrison's membership of the two associations in later years. It comprises mainly correspondence and printed material. Harrison's Sidney Luker Medal and citation are in Series 1.

Immediate source of acquisition:
The papers were donated to the Library by Sheila Harrison in 1991. Small additions were made by Mrs Harrison in 1996 and by Ed Wensing in 1997.
