CONTEMPORARY SCIENTIFIC ARCHIVES CENTRE British National Committee for the History of Science, Medicine and Technology under the guidance of the Royal Society’s CATALOGUE OF THE PAPERS AND CORRESPONDENCE OF WILLIAM THOMAS ASTBURY FRS CSAC 33/10/75 THE ROYAL SOCIETY THE ROYAL COMMISSION ON HISTORICAL MANUSCRIPTS Joint Committee on Scientific and Technological Records CSAC 33/10/75 CONTEMPORARYSCIENTIFIC ARCHIVES CENTRE Papers of William Thomas Astbury (1898 - 1961) Listed by: Jeannine Alton Harriot Weiskittel Deposited in The Brotherton Library, University of Leeds 1975 W.T. Astbury CSAC 33/10/75 Description of the collection 1 The papers were received from Mr. W.F. Astbury (son), Fru M.M. Persson (daughter), and the Astbury Department of Biophysics, University of Leeds. Dr. Thomas Lonsdale has also contributed his recollections of Astbury's early work, and a photograph (Item A.6). Some scientific correspondence exchanged with Astbury 1933-40 remains in the personal papers of Professor C.D. Darlington FRS. The collection illustrates all aspects of Astbury's activities, with the exception of his work at the Royal Institution and earliest work at Leeds. The bulk of the documents represent the extensive scientific correspondence which he conducted - often single-handed in the absence of secretarial help, as th SS Vw — letters themselves make clear - with individual . colleagues and learned societies, especially 1940-57. No records can be traced for the following periods: 1947 (all); 1949 (January-July), but the surviving letters, research plans and progress reports help to document the rapid progress of research in protein structure and nucleic acids during and after the 1939-45 War. Astbury kept his correspondence in large 'A.B.C.' files each covering roughly one year. The letters were usually arranged in alphabetical order by name of correspondent, but there were no personal or subject files, or cross-references, and the system itself was far from consistent and proved impossible to retain. All the documents have been re-sorted and assigned either to categories (e.g. Section B. Leeds University, Section D. Publications, Section F. Conferences), industrial firms, or individual correspondents. The scientific correspondence in Section E is presented in alphabetical order, with dates: see note on p.16. There is also a General Index to the correspondence on pp. 35-53. All items are manuscript unless otherwise indicated. W.T. Astbury CSAC 33/10/75 Summary of the career of W.T. Astbury b.1898 educ.
