| Additional information | Researchers should note that all the records of the Medical Association for the Prevention of War which were previously held at the Wellcome Library were transferred in 2001 to Bradford University Library. However, some records relating to the Medical Association for the Prevention of War can still be found in the personal papers of Cicely Delphine Williams at the Wellcome Library (ref. GB 0120 PP/CDW/H.1/1; correspondence, minutes, leaflets, CDW speeches at conferences, 1967-1987; see AIM25 online catalogue and Wellcome Library online catalogue). There are also six hits with "Medical Association for the Prevention of War" in the A2A meta-catalogues, but the hits only refer to isolated items. |
