I remember when Herbert was doing research in the Friends House Library in 1982 summer he found in the notes of disarrayed papers minutes - he took notes when there was more than one copy and copied others. This practice probably continued while he worked in the Woodbrooke College Library. The boxes were loaned to Woodbrooke for the 1982-83 academic year. - Ruthanna Hadley.
