Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Special Loan Collection of Scientific Apparatus at the South Kensington Museum: MDCCLXXVI By Minute dated 22nd January 1875, the Lords of the Committee of Council on Education approved of a proposal to form, a Loan Collection of Scientific Apparatus, which was to include not only apparatus for teaching and for investigation, but also such as possessed historic interest on account of the persons by whom, or the researches in which, it had been employed. Their Lordships then invited some of the leading men of science of the country - the Presidents of the learned Societies and others to act on a Committee to consider the matter, and aid them with their advice.
