Brief notes regarding a trip to Florence to see some books and his thoughts on the Faculty nominations including Hill, Burten, Teverly and, "Shaws'friend Stephen Courtauld" - whom Ashby considers the best prospect.

Discussion of the upcoming PBSR volume and a brief note on the prospective library appointment.

A particularly revealing letter which strongly sets the case for a permanently appointed librarian, with an appropriate salary (incl. a list of candadites, of whom Miss Wilkinson is the preferred choice), in order to alleviate the workloads of both Ashby and Strong. Also, Strong raises the question of summer leave in order to carry out research and visit museums across the Mediterranean.

Brief letter, very difficult to read.

Ashby is asking Forsedyke for more information regarding the Gilchrist scholarhsip and its rules.

O. K. Struckmeyer, having been accepted for the Gilchrist Studentship of 1920-21 is writing to the secretary to ask if his five months stay in Rome might be counted in Italy instead.

Strong is setting out the case for appointing an assitant librarian to help her with cataloguing and archiving materials, especially in preperation for the next academic year. Strong also wants to add to the list of rules for students at the school involving the use of the library and getting permissions for sites. Strong also notes that Mrs Ashby has had an accident and broken her elbow.

Unclear. Hard to read handwriting. Permessi?

Margaret Andrews is asking if the Gilchrist Studentship has been awarded yet and how that information is circulated.

Ashby is in England and telling Forsdyke he will try to come and meet him at some point. He has set up a meeting with Reid also.
