DescriptionWorking papers for publications by Sir Edmund Kerchever Chambers, 1903-1946, or for articles and publications to which he contributed. Papers comprise files of manuscript notes with detailed references to manuscript and printed sources, press cuttings, and a small number of proof copies for particular publications. From notes recorded on the file sleeves, it seems that Chambers may have periodically sorted through his notes, designating certain files worthy of keeping and discarding others. A date is often noted at this point.
ArrangementWhere Chambers has indicated that notes relate to a particular publication, these have been grouped together, and arranged in a broadly chronological order according to the date of publication (first edition). In cases where it is unclear as to which publication the notes relate, or there is some ambiguity, the papers have been described in as much detail as possible, and placed towards the end of the series.
