Excerpt from A Lecture on the History of the University Archives
Besides the Registers there are here, as in other institutions, books of Privileges and Chartularies into which the charters and title-deeds are transcribed. Of the old Letter Books, which are for the most part strictly Formularies, only one remains in the Archives two others. Have passed to the Bodleian and the Cottonian Libraries. But these do not come properly under the definition of archives. Still less can we in clude a large series of transcripts and collectanea which were made by many antiquaries in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, although for historical purposes they are more constantly consulted than any other volumes in my custody. Among them may be specially mentioned the collections of Mr. Robert Hare, who was Clerk of the Bells in the time of Queen Elizabeth, and of the first two Keepers of the Archives, Mr. Brian Twyne and Dr. Gerard Langbaine, in the reign of King Charles I and during the Interregnum. Nor need I here speak of the vast accumulation of miscellaneous papers.

Excerpt from A Lecture on the History of the University Archives
The archives of an ecclesiastical institution, such as a University or a Cathedral Church, are essentially of two kinds: grants and confirmations of privileges from the Crown, the Pope, or the Bishop, and title-deeds of property. Such form the nucleus of our collection here in Oxford. As soon as the University acquired jurisdiction and powers of administration and of conferring rights on its members, other records came into existence, which are grouped together under the name of Registers, a name which in Oxford, as elsewhere, was applied in a loose and wide sense. The oldest of these are books of Statutes and Ordinances regulating the studies and the discipline of the scholars and the assemblies of the masters: we have them from the reign of King Edward III. Gradually they come to include the admissions of masters to Convocation and of bachelors to lecture (ad legendum); but it is a long time before we get anything like a complete record of graduations. When the distinct Registers of Congregation (that is of the assembly of masters possessing a special and limited qualification) begin in the sixteenth century, they contain what ought to be, but is not always, such a complete record. The Registers of the Convocation of masters regent and non-regent, the highest assembly of the University, are not found until a still later date, though some records of their proceedings are occasionally inserted in the Registers of Congregation.
