| Description | Annual reports. 1884-1887, 1889-1895, 1953-2020.
The annual reports of Samuel Wayland Kershaw to Archbishop Benson for the years 1884-95 are in Kershaw's hand and are dated 1 Jan., 1885, 31 Dec., 1885, 31 Dec. 1886, 2 Jan. 1888, 31 Dec. 1889, 31 Dec. 1890, 24 Dec. 1891, 31 Dec. 1892, 1 Jan. 1894, 2 Jan. 1895, 2 Jan. 1896. These reports appear to have been returned to Kershaw by the Archbishop and include annotations and instructions in Archbishop Benson's hand.
Annual reports for 2019-20 cover only the Friends not the whole Library's activities, owing to the move to the new building. |
