UCL IOE Special Collections Advent Calendar 2016

Window nº 2
The Baines Collection

The Baines Collection of children's books dating from the 18th and 19th centuries was deposited with the Institute of Education by the Department of Education in 1992. Although there are a few foreign language items, most of the books are in English. There are both story books and books of general knowledge prepared for children's recreation and instruction in the 18th and 19th centuries.

The collection was named after the extended Baines family since a large proportion of the books have hand-written dedications or the names of their original owners, nineteen of who are members of the family of Miss Eyre’s mother, Lucy Dorothea Eyre (née Baines). Other books in the collection can be linked by dedication to members of the related Eyre and Percival families.

The books are a great source for those interested in the history of literacy, learning and moral education.

The BBC Broadcasts for Schools Collection

The BBC Broadcasts for Schools Collection is the BBC's own collection of pamphlets, teachers' notes, schedules and leaflets produced to accompany schools radio broadcasts from September 1926 till the late 1970s; the volumes from Summer 1958 and onwards include pamphlets for television broadcasts as well. The Collection has been on permanent loan to the Institute since 1990.

The first broadcast was given by the British Broadcasting Company in April 1926 - this was as a private company. The Corporation came into existence in 1926. Each subject had a Subject Committee, staffed by teachers, that aided in the discussion of ideas and the production of the programmes.

For more information, see: http://libguides.ioe.ac.uk/bbcschools

Image source: The image is the cover of a 24-page booklet containing seventeen songs for children to sing in the classroom along with the radio broadcast. It was provided by the BBC for the School Broadcasting Coucil for the United Kingdom in the Summer of 1952. The programme was aired on the Home Service, Mondays 11:00-11:18 a.m.

A five minute documentary on the 'Singing Together' series can be viewed at http://bbc.in/1ywUK8K The BBC Magazine has more information on Singing Together: The radio show that got schoolchildren singing at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-30210485

<centre>About the Special Collection</center>

The Newsam Library at the UCL Institute of Education holds 27 Special Collections of books and pamphlets relating to education. These are discrete, mainly historical collections of published books and documents reflectin g the history of education.

The collections vary in size and coverage. Some have been built up from a variety of sources such as the History of Education Collection which contain teachers handbooks, manuals and early textbooks and the BBC Broadcasts for Schools and Radiovision Collection which are two deposited collections.

Others are the personal libraries of individual educationists such as the collections belonging to the school inspectors, Captain Francis H. Grenfell (Physical Education) and F. H. Hayward (Moral Education). We also have the libraries of key educationists such as Dr. Ian Michael's books (almost 8000) on English grammar - he was Deputy Director at the IOE in the 1970s - and the distinguished music teacher and organist Bernarr Rainbow (1914-1998).

Although there are many 18th and 19th century books, the majority of the collection dates from the 1920s onwards. These modern collections represent the history of state-funded education in England.
