Although formed in 1967, the PEDC was reorganized in 1980. At that time, a new membership slate included the President of the University of West Florida. From 1980 through 1982, Dr. James Robinson or his designee, Jerry Maygarden, were members of the PEDC. These records of the PEDC are those materials distributed to Board members.

Reports and publications of the PEDC are filed and indexed in the Bibliography of West Florida. Some publications may also be in the card catalog of the Pace Library.
