Working papers for the Glasgow Medical Officer of Health Annual Reports

Scope and Content
These folders appear to have been compiled by Miss Knox, the Public Health Department Librarian. The folders contain handwritten draft statistics, often very rough; some typed correspondence with contributors to the reports; and copies of printed reports amended with current statistics. Not every item in each folder is listed. As the period covered by the files spans more than one Medical Officer of Health, it is assumed that the files were kept centrally. The original card folders were not retained unless they had attachments. Folders in D/HE/1/9/3 and D/HE/1/10 also contain material relating to the annual reports; and the volume D-HE/1/12 contains statistics some of which were used in reports. Mostly typed or printed with some manuscript items.
Two files in this series are closed due to medical confidentiality as is indicated in the entries.
