At the last meeting of the Council of the Society, presided over by Lucien Wolf, it was reported that the collection of Anglo-Judaica in the Mocatta Library was now practically complete and it had been decided to build up a systematic collection of works on general Jewish history.
Plans of the new Mocatta Library and Museum, contemplated as part of the University College Centenary Building Scheme, were submitted.
