Geddes, Sir Patrick, 1854-1932, Knight, biologist, sociologist, educationist and town plannerDocuments the activities of the safety officer of a national environmental research laboratory in the late 1960s.
At the time, new regulations concerning asbestos were in the making. The Warren Spring Laboratory (WSL) was asked to look into their implications for working environments in Mintech (Ministry of Technology) establishments. The core of the M J Sanders papers consists of a series of minutes of meetings and draft reports, relating mainly to asbestos. The remainder is publications, with very occasional intercalations of correspondence.
Books and booklets found with the material have been transferred to the OEDA Library and can be identified through the University of Strathclyde Library catalogue.
