Introduction The records listed in this volume are what might be described as central records of the College – the minute books, the registers, the statutes and similar material, generated directly by the Provost and Fellows and the New Governing Body. There are, however, equally central records listed elsewhere. The Foundation and Consolidation Charters, and other royal charters, were listed by Noel Blakiston as ECR 39. He included other central records, particularly relating to the building of the College, in ECR 38 and ECR 49. Accounting records to 1642, including the audit rolls up to 1505, when they were replaced by books, are listed as ECR 61 and later accounting records as ECR 62. Papers produced by individual Provosts, Vice-Provosts and Fellows (though there are very few of this last category) will be found as COLL/P, COLL/VP or COLL/FELL as appropriate. The papers of officers such as the Bursar (COLL/B), Registrar(COLL/REG) and other College servants are also separately listed. The catalogue of the College’s archives (now COLL/ARCH/1) compiled in 1724 by Thomas Martin (1697 – 1771) mentions the central records that existed at the time but does not list them individually. Binding, indexing and annotation of the registers in particular show clearly that their importance and value were recognised. Seal books, minute books and lease books were also carefully preserved. However, unbound papers were less well served by a storage system that was essentially organised by estate and were allowed to accumulate in considerable confusion until very roughly sorted by Noel Blakiston into boxes covering ten year periods. -

ANNUAL REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University For
ANNUAL REPORT Report of the Proceedings of the University for the year ended Slst December, 1962 To His Excellency, Major-General Sir Rohan Delacombe, K.B.E., C.B:, D.S.O. Governor of Victoria. May it please Your Excellency, I have the honour, in accordance with Section 43 of the University Act 1958, to submit to Your Excellency the following report of the Proceedings of the University during 1962. 1. Introduction • The year 1962 is the mid-year of the 1961-3 triennium of the Aus tralian Universities Commission. With some *2}A million pounds' worth of new buildings going up during this period, thanks largely to funds granted to us in; conformity with the recommendations of the A.U.C., the grounds of this University have long since lost any resemblance to the quiet place of refuge and contemplation that we would all like them to be. > But, although one might sigh for peace and quiet, it is most cheering and invigorating to see the walls rearing high in every direction. After the builders' debris is cleaned up, and often even before the blessing of some opening ceremony, each new building represents ultimate peace and quiet for some previously inadequately-housed department. While our sister University of Monash is building a new university on a virgin site, we are undergoing a steady and virtually complete re building programme within our existing and limited site, the beneficial effects of which will be felt in every corner of the grounds before many more years have passed. The State and Commonwealth financial assistance granted over the last five years is now showing long-term improvement. -
Durham Cathedral an Address
DURHAM CATHEDRAL AN ADDRESS DELIVERED SEPTEMBER 24, I879. BY W I L L I A M G R E E NWELL, M.A.. D.C.L.. F.R.S.. F.S.A. THIRD EDITION. WITH PLAN AND ILLUSTRATIONS. Durham : ANDREWS & CO.. 64. SADDLER STREET. 1889. D U R H A M : THOS. CALDCLEUGH, PRINTER. 70. SADDLER STREET. TO THE MEMORY OF William of Saint Carilef THIS ATTEMPT TO ILLUSTRATE THE NOBLE CHURCH WHICH HIS GENIUS AND PIETY HAVE BEQUEATHED TO US IS DEDICATED. 53494 PREFACE. THE following account of the Cathedral Church of Durham was addressed to the members of the Berwickshire Naturalists' Club and the Durham and Northumberland Archaeological and Architectural Society, at a joint meeting of the Societies, held in the Cathedral, on September 24, 1879. This will explain the form under which it appears, and, it is to be hoped, excuse the colloquial and somewhat desultory way in which the subject is treated. It was not the intention of the author of the address, when it was given, that it should appear in any other form than that of an abstract in the Transactions of the Societies to which it was delivered. Several of his friends, however, have thought that printed in externa it might be of service as a Guide Book to the Cathedral, and supply what has been too long wanting in illustration of the Church of Durham. To this wish he has assented, but with some reluctance, feeling how inadequate is such a treatment of a subject so important. Some additional matter has been supplied in the notes which will help to make it more useful than it was in its original form.
