About the Architects' Roster
Established in 1946 on the recommendation of the AIA Committee on Architect and Government Relations, the "Architects' Roster and/or Register of Architects Qualified for Federal Public Works" was intended to help the private architect get federal work. Questionnaires were sent to all registered architects in the United States, and review committees were established to judge the qualifications of those answering the questionnaires. The qualified list was available to government agencies involved in building programs.
Almost immediately, in 1947, the "Register" was abandoned in favor of a simple "Roster," maintained as "an accurate record of the background and achievements of the members of the architectural profession." Individuals or firms wishing to do federal work could check the appropriate blank of the questionnaire, but the Committees of Review would no longer judge the qualifications of the architects, only substantiate the accuracy of statements made on the form.
By the time of the 1953 roster this attempt, too, had been abandoned, and forms carried the disclaimer, "The American Institute of Architects assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of statements made in this questionnaire. The obligation to maintain this record as a current description of an architectural firm rests with the firm..."
The portions of the Roster which survive in the AIA Archives are a valuable source of documentation for the profession prior to 1953.
