At a meeting of the Governing Body, 6 October 1931:
"It was agreed that a system of Committees to prepare business for meetings of the Governing Body and to make recommendations to it should be tried experimentally for one year".

It was felt that the needs would be met by the appointment of a Tutorial and a Finance and General Business Committee.

[for full terms of the Committees see: MCGB/4/2/5]

At a meeting of the Governing Body on 11 October 1932 it was agreed to continue the system of Committees.

This series consists of title deeds, estate correspondence, and other unbound material. The arrangement follows, as far as possible, that of the 19th century Index to Muniments or Muniments Book which has the Old Library reference R.2.5, and to which certain alterations and additions have been made.

All dates are set out in the current Style (but reckoning the Year of Grace from 1 January). Dating errors in the Muniments Book have been corrected, but the order of the documents has not normally been disturbed - with the result that some of the lists which follow are not in precise chronological order.

Original series ran from 1909 to 1956 and then a new numbering series started with No. 1 being 1956-1957.

The original series contained mainly articles, poems, and stories from undergraduates. It was printed at the expense of the Amalgamation Club and was circulated only to residents members and a few subscribers.
From 1952-1956 the Magdalene College Record was printed from the Magazine and sent to all members of the College Association.
In 1956 in view of the Appeal for Endowment the Record was sent to every old member.
Future issues would only be sent to members of the College Association and to those who had subscribed to the Appeal.

The old Magazine was discontinued mainly on the grounds of expense. It was hoped that in its new and reduced form it would still contain articles, serious and light, on things which interested Magdalene men. The Editor invited contributions and news from all members of the College. The Period covered by the Record was from 1 September to 31 August.

Contains a record of decisions made by the Governing Body. There is an index to the contents at the back of the volume.

Contains a record of decisions made by the Governing Body. There is a separate printed index to the contents.
