Description

Jones had assisted Sir Harold Hartley as editor of Notes and Records in the later 1960s (see NCUACS 95.8.00/L.34-NCUACS 95.8.00/L.40). In 1970 Jones and W.D.M. Paton succeeded Hartley as joint editors of Notes and Records. They were both 'retired' in 1988 although they agreed to serve on the Notes and Records editorial advisory board that was set up to support the new editor. Jones retired from the board in 1996.

The material is correspondence with Paton and others re editorial matters, correspondence with contributors including invitations to write and some drafts of papers submitted, papers of meetings and discussions on the future of the journal, and a little general correspondence about history of science interests.
