Scope and content
These are files formerly held in SZ's office at UEA. They relate to SZ's brief, and rather unhappy, tenure of the Presidency of the Society, 1977-1984. The bulk of the content relates to the parlous financial circumstances in which the ZSL found itself at the beginning of the 1980s. The situation led to approaches to HMG for support, for the first time in the Society's history; an independent review of its activities; and the preparation of Operational and Business Plans. The remainder of the series is concerned with changes of personnel and organisation at the executive level following SZ's retirement as Secretary, the choice of a successor to SZ as President, and the direction in which he felt the ZSL should go after his retirement.
