Custodial History:

The files in the archives were rescued from the Leicester office of IVS in 1991 in the two-day interval between the decision to close the Leicester office and its actual closure. Filing cabinets were hurriedly emptied into any boxes that could be found, transported to the garage of Norman Dobson former member of staff of IVS. Some months later (when some listing work had been carried out) the records were deposited at the Record Office for Leicestershire, Leicester and Rutland on a temporary basis, pending the identification of a more suitable repository. The deposit included material which was held in the Commonweal Collection at the University of Bradford for a time, but returned to Norman Dobson in 1990. All material was transferred to Hull University Archives, with the agreement of IVS, June 2010. There have been three further deposits of IVS material at the Hull History Centre, with the accession numbers 2012/05, 2012/25 and 2013/02.
