Biographical history

The Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland was founded by the eminent Sanskrit scholar Sir Henry Thomas Colebrooke on the 15th March 1823. It received its Royal Charter from King George IV on the 11th August 1824 'for the investigation of subjects connected with and for the encouragement of science, literature and the arts in relation to Asia'. It continues as a forum for those who are interested in the languages, cultures and history of Asia to meet and exchange ideas.

Additional information

Related units of description

The Council Minutes for 9 December 1965 record that a Library Committee was appointed and those for the 14 April 1966 and 8 December 1966 record that the Library Committee Report was approved. Thus we have evidence of Committee meetings for which we no longer have any records. Therefore it is wise to check the Council Minutes if wishing to discover the full extent of the meetings of the Library Committee.
