Scope and Content

This series comprises a several different sets of documents books. The most important are OCA/15/1, which contains documents relating to the governance and administration of the College. These are documents which were used in the business of Court, Council and Senate, and minutes of those bodies will cross-reference to documents in these volumes. There is also a more general series of documents (OCA/15/2) from the late 1860s-early 1870s period including a number relating to the Extension (which may duplicate material in OCA/7). There are also similar documentary material for the later period (OCA/15/3). OCA/15/4/1 is a document book of Joseph Thompson, apparently compiled in connection with his official duties as College Treasurer.
