Appraisal, destruction and scheduling
Normally, papers of committees that are not related to the Glasgow School of Art would be appraised in line with Glasgow School of Art Arcives and Collections appraisal policy. In this instance, however, the National Trust for Scotland Committee minutes collected by Barnes have been retained as many refer to the Glasgow School of Art Hostel at Culzean Castle.
