Scope and content

The manuscripts compiled by Edward William West. Many of these were listed by de Menasce. West was interested in many topics which are reflected in these manuscripts.

System of arrangement

The cataloging for a large part followed the numbering system created by de Menasce. However both West 56 and West 57 consisted of multiple items. Therefore these were extracted from the consecutive numbering system created by de Menasce. There are also further manuscripts which have been added to this catalogue.
