"Linus Pauling and the Twentieth Century : Quest for Humanity" is sponsored by the Linus Pauling family, Oregon State University, and Soka Gakkai International (SGI), in order to educate a new generation about this remarkable man and his unceasing quest for peace.

Both Linus Pauling, Jr. who chaired the Select Advisory Committee and Linda Pauling Kamb who served on the committee, contributed many hours of time, as well as reminiscences, artifacts and photographs to insure the success of the exhibit.

Clifford S. Mead, Head of Collection Services, Special Collections, Valley Library at Oregon State University in Corvallis, Oregon, and Ramesh Krishnamurthy, Project Director for the Ava Helen and Linus Pauling Papers at Oregon State University gave generously of their time and expertise, and lent some of their most precious artifacts as well as the majority of the photographs used in the exhibit.

Soka Gakkai means "value creating society." SGI is a worldwide organization of lay believers in the Buddhism of Nichiren, a 13th Century sage. SGI is committed to activities which further peace, culture and education.
