Heritage Statement and Design & Access Statement Clerkenwell Parochial School Amwell Street, Islington, ec1 Application for Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent David Gibson Architects February 2014 26 February 2014 Ref.: 0997/140226.it David Gibson Architects 35 Britannia Row London N1 8QH (fax 020 7704 6946) 020 7226 2207 Page 1 Location and Context Clerkenwell Parochial Church of England Primary School is located in the southern part of the London Borough of Islington within the New River Conservation Area. The school building and the attached former Caretaker’s House are Listed Grade II (see attached ‘list’ description – appendix A). Clerkenwell Parochial is one of the oldest extant school houses in London. If the school is to continue to run effectively and successfully, it must update itself and its surroundings, but without detracting from its charm, identity or historic character. History Clerkenwell Parochial School moved to its present site in 1828 for the education of the children in the New River Company and Lloyd Baker estates, then still under construction. The new school building, in a Tudor style and St. Mark's church, in a plain Gothic style, both by William Chadwell Mylne, the New River Company's architect, were precursors of the more vigorously eclectic revivalist styles, which were to become fashionable by the middle of the century. The Listing The school was ’Listed' in September 1972, as a ‘building of special architectural or historical interest' under Section 54 of Chapter 78 the Town and Country Planning Act 1971. The listing is at Grade II. There are now nearly 4000 Listed Buildings in Islington, of which all but a handful are Grade II, but many regard this as one of the most important because of its early date, because of its significance in the development of the historic Clerkenwell estates and because it is an unusually well-preserved pre-School Board school, retaining intact most of its original features and early adaptations - one of the few surviving in London. -
Former Fellows Biographical Index Part
Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part Two ISBN 0 902198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART II K-Z C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography. -

Catalogue of Manuscripts in the Roth Collection’, Contributed by Cecil Roth Himself to the Alexander Marx Jubilee Volume (New York, 1950), Where It Forms Pp
Handlist 164 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Provisional handlist of manuscripts in the Roth Collection Introduction Dr Cecil Roth (1899-1970), the Jewish historian, was born on 5 March 1899 in Dalston, London, the youngest of the four sons of Joseph and Etty Roth. Educated at the City of London School, he saw active service in France in 1918 and then read history at Merton College, Oxford, obtaining a first class degree in modern history in 1922, and a DPhil in 1924; his thesis was published in 1925 as The Last Florentine Republic. In 1928 he married Irene Rosalind Davis. They had no children. Roth soon turned to Jewish studies, his interest from childhood, when he had a traditional religious education and learned Hebrew from the Cairo Genizah scholar Jacob Mann. He supported himself by freelance writing until in 1939 he received a specially created readership in post-biblical Jewish studies at the University of Oxford, where he taught until his retirement in 1964. He then settled in Israel and divided his last years between New York, where he was visiting professor at Queens’ College in City University and Stern College, and Jerusalem. He died in Jerusalem on 21 June 1970. Roth’s literary output was immense, ranging from definitive histories of the Jews both globally and in several particular countries, to bibliographical works, studies of painting, scholarly research, notably on the Dead Sea scrolls, and biographical works. But his crowning achievement was the editorship of the Encyclopaedia Judaica, which appeared in the year of his death. Throughout his life Roth collected both books and manuscripts, and art objects. -

A Preliminary Investigation Using EBSCO Online
UC Davis UC Davis Previously Published Works Title Evaluating Journal Aggregators: A Preliminary Investigation Using EBSCO Online. Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2q61v8s5 Author Heyer-Gray, Bob Publication Date 2001 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Evaluating Journal Aggregators: A Preliminary Investigation Using EBSCO Online. Robert Heyer-Gray [[email protected]] Physical Sciences & Engineering Library University of California Davis, CA 95616 Introduction I initially began exploring the usefulness/usability of EBSCO Online [http://www-us.ebsco.com/online/] in March 2000. At that time, the database contained 141 journals listed as "On Subscription" for UC Davis. I reviewed our holdings again in November 2000 and once more in May 2001. 100 additional titles have been added to EBSCO Online for UC Davis since April 2000, and I would imagine that as more of the UC Davis subscriptions are transferred to EBSCO, that number would continue to expand. I approached EBSCO Online with a few questions in mind: 1. Is there anything unique to EBSCO Online? Or perhaps more precisely, are they providing access to publications (content) not already made available by other publisher agreements for UC Davis (UCD) and/or the California Digital Library (CDL)? 2. How did the holdings for title mounted on EBSCO Online compare to our print subscription in terms of coverage, completeness, and currency? 3. Can records (for both journals and individual articles) be linked to directly from an online catalog and/or A&I database? 4. What are the full-text formats? 5. How useful is EBSCO Online as an A&I/Full-Text database? Why UC Davis is Using EBSCO Online EBSCO Online provides access to full-text articles for journals to which the UCD Library subscribes through EBSCO Information Services. -

Descriptive Summary Title: Sanitary Reform of London: the working collection of Sir Joseph Bazalgette, Date (inclusive): ca. 1785-1969 Collection number: DA676 .S26 1785 Creator: Bazalgette, Joseph Extent: 455 items Repository: Stanford University. Libraries. Dept. of Special Collections and University Archives. Abstract: The collection documents the history of the sanitary evolution of London from the 1840s to the early twentieth century. Some 4500 separate printed, typescript, and manuscript items trace the stages by which the drainage and fresh water supply for London was introduced-- in its time perhaps the greatest feat of urban civil engineering that had ever been undertaken.
