Chairmen

Many government reports are popularly known by the name of the Chairman of the investigating body. Many of these can be traced through the published indexes to Chairmen, which can be found on the shelves labelled Government Publications Catalogues on Level 4, e.g. Stephen Richard's `British Government Publications: an Index to Chairmen 1800-1899`and his further volumes covering the years 1900-1940, 1941-1978 and 1979-1982.
They can also be traced through UKOP Online and the Stationery Office annual catalogues, the sessional indexes to Parliamentary Papers and Ford's breviates.

Chairmen of non-parliamentary reports held in the Library can be found in the catalogue using the author search.
