Papers of the Society for the Study of Addiction to Alcohol and other Drugs, 1920s-1970s, comprising minutes, 1921-1969 and 1976; registers of attendance, 1904-1939; financial records, 1930s and 1960s; and uncatalogued meeting papers and correspondence, 1965-1968.

Papers on alchemy by Albert Poisson, including correspondence, translations, essays, notes on chemistry, John Dee, the occult, extracts from books on alchemy, 1885-1904.

Papers of Sir Charles Putnam Symonds comprising correspondence, notes, reviews and photographs spanning the period 1954-1978; also reprints spanning 1917-1962.

This is not a large collection, with nothing except offprints representing Sir Charles's career before the mid 1950s and only five files of rather miscellaneous interest covering the years 1954-1977. Apparently at the request of Sir Charles all his case notes were destroyed at his death.

The collection of offprints is not complete; however, it seems probable that at least some of the missing items were among the papers printed in Studies in Neurology (London 1970).

The collection comprises medical notes and associated personal material. MSS.835-853 comprise notes by Acland on scientific and medical subjects, spanning the period from his schooldays to the First World War. MSS.3652-3653 are Acland's notes of clinical lectures given in 1876-1877 at St. Thomas's Hospital by Charles Murchison (1830-1879). MSS.5798-5800 comprise loose papers: letters, wall-charts and diplomas.

Notes from Pierre Chirac's lectures, 1696-1734.
