Immediate Source of Acquisition
The bulk of these papers were received direct from Kenneth McQuillen in 1998. New accessions were received in January 2004 and in November 2005.
Appraisal
McQuillen's papers were found to contain some duplicates of material which is already held in the College archive (e.g. copies of lectures by overseas fellows). These have not been retained.
There was also a sequence of unsigned Governing Body minutes - some of the recent volumes have not yet (Feb 2008) been deposited in the archive. These have been added to the archive until the main set is deposited by College officers.
