SCH/2 - SSEES Library administration records (1923-1994)
SSEES's first library was housed in King's College and staffed by a part
time honorary librarian. In 1928 after the school moved to premises in
Torrington Square books were housed by subject in various lecturers's
rooms. The first full time librarian Sergei Yacobson was appointed in
1934 and he compiled the first catalogue of the library's stock. The
library along with the school moved to new premises in Senate House in
1938 but during the war the library had to be left behind when SSEES was
evacuated to Oxford and many books were damaged during an air raid. In
the post war years the library expanded both in space occupied and staff
employed.
