A number of these were mentioned in a helpful review of the Bibliography by Dr. J. F. A. Mason, Librarian of Christ Church, Oxford, in Notes and Queries 208:389-91, 1963. At the same time his remarks prompted me to examine the Bodleian catalogue, where I found the titles of a few local works previously unknown to me, and of at least two included in 1962 on the doubtful strength of hearsay. Of even greater help was a privileged loan of Mr. T. W. Bagshawe’s card-index of books mostly presented to Luton Museum. These are for the most part works of a comprehensive char­ acter, or dealing with neighbouring shires but containing significant Bedfordshire information. To Mr. Bagshawe, therefore, I am much indebted. Some who gave assistance during the preparation of the original work have since died, including, to our great sorrow, those pillars of the B.H.R.S., its Hon. Secretary, Mr. C. E. Freeman, and its Hon. Treasurer, Mr. F. J. Manning. Without the inspiration and efforts of these two the Biblio­ graphy could not have been published. Others who have continued their support are the County Archivist and her staff, the Librarians and their reference room assistants, Mr. J. F. Dyer (Editor of the Bedfordshire Magazine), Mr. G. D. Gilmore, Mr. H. Newman (still increasing his collection), Mr. H. G. Tibbutt and Mr. Geoffrey Webb. Much appreciated has been the opportunity of incor­ porating Mr. H. Prudden’s local geological card-index, neglected earlier through an oversight. New ‘credits’ go to Mr. W. K. A. Child (Bedford Public Library), Mr. Simon Houfe, Miss Mar- ghanita Laski (for directing me to an important item on Ridgmont), Mr. Richard Marks, Mr.J. Lawson Petingale, Mr. N. Douglas Simpson, Mr. E. J. Smith (Luton News), Mr. C. H. Talbot (Wellcome Historical Medical Library) and Mr. A. G. Underwood. The Bodleian and the public libraries at Northampton and Hastings are cordially thanked for their replies to queries. Research in back volumes of periodicals has been continued, but not exhaustively. Indeed, the results are hardly worth the effort, except in one instance. This has been the scrutiny of the indexes of over two hundred half-yearly volumes of Notes and Queries (all of which up to 1927, except part of 1922, are in Bedford Public Library). Well over one hundred items of local significance have come to light. Some admittedly are trivial, but many possess an historical interest which puts their compilation into line with the list of Bedfordshire references in the Gentleman s Magazine, made by J. G. Raynes (BNQ 1:128-42, 1886). Thanks once more to Mr T. W. Bagshawe, the use of W. Bonser’s A bibliography of folklore (1961) has rendered unnecessary a laborious search in the periodical Folklore and its antecedents (1878 ff.), and some relevant material has been disinterred. All the major indexes of periodicals (Poole, etc.) have been scanned, but there still remain for the unsatiated bibliographical aspirant the huge (unindexed!) volumes of the Field (from 1853), the Builder (from 1834), and the agricultural journals of the last century, when the Russell estate was so prominent, e.g. The Farmer’s Magazine, Edinburgh, 1800-25, becoming The British Farmer’s Magazine, 1826/27 - 53, the Quarterly Journal of Agriculture, Edinburgh, 1828-43, and its successors, The Journal of Agriculture, 1843-68, and The County Gentleman’s Magazine, 1868-82. Possibly still more Bedfordshire material of value may be found in these, particularly in the Field. In some of the notes in the previous biographical division the author ventured ‘to flesh the skeleton [of a reference book] with some pleasant passages’. This did not meet with disapproval, but here only occasionally do entries lend themselves to lightness. The ‘Additional Corrigenda’ page sent to subscribers and inserted in unsold copies of the biblio­ graphy is repeated here with a few extras, as is most of the table of Abbreviations. An index of subjects, the absence of which was deplored by some reviewers, has not been considered necessary in a supplement, the arrangement being quite straightforward. The three Divisions, the twenty- five Sections, and the required Subsections only are retained. Further narrowing down is effected by printing here the number of the page in the original work, when fresh entries are introduced. It has not been found possible to make changes in the record of the location of the printed material, so many acquisitions having been made by the libraries in five years. One of these, however, purchased by the County Library, ought to be singled out. This is the photolithographed edition of the scarce Modern English biography, by Frederic Boase, with its supplements (see B.Bibl., p.219). 7 Incidentally, most of the ‘BMS’ copies of local works have migrated to the Bedford Museum which incorporates the B.M.S. Museum collections. Thanks to its spacious new building Luton Public Library has perhaps made the largest addition to Bedfordshire material. Considerable time has been spent in examining its well-catalogued and -filed holdings, with the result that the nature and location of works listed here show a marked emphasis on the south of the county. This is natural too in the light of the advancing importance of the new county borough, whose Library Committee, like that of Bedford, has been so generous in its support of this bibliography. The enforcement of a deadline at 31 December 1965 forbids the inclusion in the body of the work of several interesting 1966 publications: the guide to the Russell Estate Collections in the B.R.O., etc., a B.H.R.S. volume of more selected wills, Bunyan’s standing today (Moot Hall Leaflet), and commemorative books on Bedford (Charter Year) and Kempston (70 years as U.D.C.). Just within our period came the pamphlet English Local History Handlist (Hist. Assoc., 1965), by Mr F. W. Kuhlicke, Director of Bedford Museum, and Mr F. G. Emmison, the Essex County Archivist. In the form of a bibliography of over 1,600 entries this provides a student’s approach to local history in general and a guide to background reading for the specialist. L.R.C. Bedford.

DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Correctional Education; *Correctional Institutions; Correctional Rehabilitation; Criminals; *Educational History; Foreign Countries; Postsecondary Education; Prisoners; Prison Libraries; Rehabilitation Programs; Secondary Education; Vocational Rehabilitation IDENTIFIERS *England; *Wales ABSTRACT In response to prison disturbances in England and Wales in the late 1980s, the education program for prisoners was improved and more prisoners were given access to educational services. Although education is a relatively new phenomenon in the English and Welsh penal system, by the 20th century, education had become an integral part of prison life. It served partly as a control mechanism and partly for more altruistic needs. Until 1993 the management and delivery of education and training in prisons was carried out by local education authority staff. Since that time, the education responsibility has been contracted out to organizations such as the Staff College, other universities, and private training organizations. Various policy implications were resolved in order to allow these organizations to provide prison education. Today, prison education programs are probably the most comprehensive of any found in the country. They may range from literacy education to postgraduate study, with students ranging in age from 15 to over 65. The curriculum focuses on social and life skills.

  • Luton Motor Town
    Contents Luton: Motor Town Luton: Motor Town 1910 - 2000 The resources in this pack focus on the major changes in the town during the 20th century. For the majority of the period Luton was a prosperous, optimistic town that encouraged forward-looking local planning and policy. The Straw Hat Boom Town, seeing problems ahead in its dependence on a single industry, worked hard to attract and develop new industries. In doing so it fuelled a growth that changed the town forever. However Luton became almost as dependant on the motor industry as it had been on the hat industry. The aim of this pack is to provide a core of resources that will help pupils studying local history at KS2 and 3 form a picture of Luton at this time. The primary evidence included in this pack may photocopied for educational use. If you wish to reproduce any part of this park for any other purpose then you should first contact Luton Museum Service for permission. Please remember these sheets are for educational use only. Normal copyright protection applies. Contents 1: Teachers’ Notes Suggestions for using these resources Bibliography 2: The Town and its buildings 20th Century Descriptions A collection of references to the town from a variety of sources. They illustrate how the town has been viewed by others during this period.

  • Tender Mercies in English Scriptural Idiom and in Nephi's Record
    Tender Mercies in English Scriptural Idiom and in Nephi’s Record Miranda Wilcox Nephi records divine beings inviting humans to participate in the sacred story of salvation and humans petitioning divine beings for aid in their mortal affliction. The first chapter of Nephi’s story introduces linguistic, textual, and narrative questions about how humans should engage with and produce holy books that memorialize these divine- human relations in heaven and on earth. For Nephi, a central element of these relationships is “tender mercies” (1 Nephi 1:20). What are tender mercies? How do the Lord’s tender mercies make the chosen faithful “mighty, even unto the power of deliverance”? Nephi’s striking phrase has become popular in Latter-day Saint discourse since Elder David A. Bednar preached of the “tender mercies of the Lord” at general conference in April 2005. He defined tender mercies as “very personal and individualized blessings, strength, pro- tection, assurances, guidance, loving-kindnesses, consolation, support, and spiritual gifts which we receive from and because of and through the Lord Jesus Christ.”1 I would like to extend this discussion and reconsider this definition with respect to Nephi’s record by explor- ing the biblical sources and the transmission of this beloved phrase through English scriptural idiom. 1. David A. Bednar, “The Tender Mercies of the Lord,”Ensign , May 2005, 99. 75 76 Miranda Wilcox Nephi explains that he has acquired “a great knowledge of the good- ness and the mysteries of God” and that he will share this knowledge in his record (1 Nephi 1:1).
