notably in the sections conservation, arranging and description of the collections
and the preparation of scientific publications. The government youth
unemployment relief programme enabled the temporary employment of three
assistants. The state programme for the employment of conscientious objectors
made it possible to hire one person for a period of 18 months.
Having reached the retirement age, on December 1, J. Halsema, head of the
bookbinding and restoration workshop, left the Institute. H e had been a member
of the Institute since 1.1.1962. H e h a s rendered the IISGinvaluable service in the

Department, using the early pension's programme, left the IISG on March 1. Ms.
K. Onderdelinden of the Restoration Department left the Institute on September
1. Mr. V. Kahan reached the retirement age this year, but continued his activities in
the International Organisations Department on a voluntary base.
Drs. J.R. van der Leeuw, the Institute's Director, celebrated his silver jubilee this
year. Mrs. J . H . de Vries-Wiersum of the Catalogue Department celebrated her
silver jubilee.
D r . M . M . Segall-Rosenmann, research officer of the Anarchism, Spain, Latin
America Department, left the Institute on a disability pension on July 1. D r . Segall
entered the Institute in 1976, and has been active in the acquisition of Latin
American material and assisting visitors. Mr. J.B. Hendriks of the Periodicals'
Department also left on a disability pension, on July 1.
After a long illness mr. A. Beekhof of the Periodicals' Department died on May 18.
H e was a hard working and conscientious colleague.
Boris Souvarine, ex-secretary of the Conseil d'Amis of the Paris branch of the
IISG in the years before the second world war died on N o v e m b e r 1. Boris
Souvarine was an expert of the history of the Soviet Union. Ms. Drs. H .
Dommisse, the head of the Netherlands' Department from 1958 till 1963 died in
1984. They have rendered invaluable services to the Institute.
Z W O subsidized the scientific project" Archives Bakounine" for another year.
The Ministry of Education and Sciences agreed to have the project integrated into
the regular activities of the institute. As a result, for the duration of the project the
establishment has been extended with 2,2 places. 1.6 Places more were created by a
partial transformation of the price compensation of 1984 into work.

Honorary doctorate

At the end of the year under review the University of Amsterdam announced its
intention to grant B. Sapir an honorary doctorate on January 6,1985. Dr. Sapir has
been with the IISG from its foundation, only interrupted by short periods of
absence during and after the Second World War. At present he prepares a
documentary source publication on Theodor Dan. It goes without saying that
everyone who knows Dr. Sapir has been very pleased with this recognition of his
greatmerits.

The Beleidsraad [Advisory Committee to the Direction] consisted of H . van der

Burch, E. Koen, J. van der Leeuw, M. van der Linden, F. Tichelman and J.
Wekker.
In 1984 the membership of the public counterpart of the industrial w o r k councils,
the "Dienstcommissies", was extended to non-members of the Civil Servants'
Unions. O n June 7 such a "Dienstcommissie new style" was elected in the IISG.
This was moreover the first "legally recognized" work's council of the Institute.
lts members were D J . Mulder, J J . Quast, L.C. van der Sluijs, J . H . G . Staphorst
and C E . Wagenaar. T h e committee and the director met twelve times in 1984.
T w o members of the Dienstcommissie attended the meetings of the Board as
observers.

Reorganisation

The annual report 1983 mentioned the help of four external library and archives
experts, w h o were to advise the Board on the reorganisation of the library and the
archives departments. Members were Prof. D r . E. Braches, Librarian of the
University of Amsterdam, Drs. J. van Heijst, Librarian of the State University of
Utrecht, D r . F.C.J. Ketelaar, State Archivist in the Province of Groningen and
D r s . J . N . T . van Albada, Municipal Archivist of Bois-le-Duc. O n M a r c h 9 , 1 9 8 4 ,
they presented their advice, "Uitgangspunten voor het advies inzake archief,
bibliotheek en overige documentaire collecties van het I I S G " [Points of departure
for an advice concerning the archives, the library and the other documentary
collections of the IISG] to the Board of the IISG. This Notice was the basis of the
coming reorganisation.
In 1983 the "Commissie Uitvoering Beleidsnota" (CUB) [Committee for the
Execution of the Policy Notice 1983] was installed. Members of this committee
were: W. Thomassen, chairman, Mr. P.J.G. Kapteijn, representing the Board of
the K N A W , Prof. D r . Th. van Tijn, representing the Board of the K N A W
Institute IISG and the Board of the Foundation IISG, Dr. E.J. Fischer and F.E.G.
van Haersma Buma as advisers, Drs. W.R. Hugenholtz for the direction of the
K N A W , J.A.W. Gielkens representing the personnel, and Drs. A . H . Warmelink
of the K N A W , secretary.
The Committee met eleven times. In August it compiled a draft advice to the Board
of the K N A W , containing an organisation plan, a description of the required
functions, a reorganisation code, an implementation procedure, and a step by step
scheme of the reorganisation. After discussion with the personnel's council a final
version was presented in December, which is expected to be presented to the
K N A W Board at the beginning of 1985, and to the minister of Education, for
ratification, in March. Then the second part of the reorganisation, the
implementation, will be started, which is expected to be completed by the end of
1985.

4. FINANCE

The IISG's accounts for 1984 contained the following posts:

Dfl. 630,377 formaterialexpenses(ofwhichDfl. 151,000 forconservation and
arranging library and archival collections)
Dfl. 4.453,000 forsalaries
Dfl. 153,000 for investments
Dfl. 800,000 for accommodation expenses

The budget for material expenses was exceeded by Dfl. 28,615. The personnel
costs showed an underexpenditure of Dfl. 43,800, which means that the financial
year could be concluded with a small surplus.
The Commissie voor Bibliografie en Documentatie C O B I D O C [Committee for
Bibliography and Documentation] granted a subsidy of Dfl. 261,000 for the
conservation and acquisition of collections. The government P I C A subsidy for
catalogue automation of Dfl. 31,000 could, this year again, not be used.
The Volkswagen Foundation (Hannover) granted a subsidy of D M 148,100 for
the Trosky project. A n a m o u n t o f Dfl. 16,477 was transferredto 1985.
The Stichting voor Zuiver Wetenschappelijk O n d e r z o e k Z W O [Foundation for
Pure Scientific Research] granted a subsidy of Dfl. 273,625 for the projects
"Russian Series on Social H i s t o r y " and the "Archives Bakounine".
The Ministry of Education and Sciences granted a third supplementary subsidy of
Dfl. 78,657 for the microfilming of the C N T / F A I archives. An amount of
Dfl. 8,345 of t h i s s u m h a s been transferredto 1985.
"De Centrale" Insurance C o m p a n y (The Hague) granted, this year again, a
subsidy of Dfl. 10,000 for the conservation of the collections.
O n December 6, the Institute learned that the Volkswagen Foundation in
Hannover had agreed to subsidise the research project "Widerstand, Exil und
Deutschland nach Hitler, Paul H e r t z und die deutsche Sozialdemokratie
1933-1945 " with an amount of D M 205,400. The researcher is D r .
U . Langkau-Alex.
The Institute expresses its gratitude for the generous help extended by all
institutions mentioned.

5. ACCOMMODATION

The accommodation facilities of the Institute have become both quahtatively and
quantitatively insufficint. To improve these matters and insure a proper
accommodation for the medium and long term, the ministry, the KNAW, the
IISG and an architect firm discussed and approved of an actualised version of the
Program of Accommodation Requirements. At present, the most practicable
location seems to be the 'T W O " building (Instituten voor Wetenschap en
Onderzoek/Institutes for Science and Research), which is a part of the Academie
Medical Centre complex in the Bullewijk area of Amsterdam South West. Here
also part of the Library of the University of Amsterdam has been accommodated.
At the end of the year under report the ministry has not yet taken a decision on the
matter. The Board of the KNAW and representatives of the IISG will see the
minister of Science and Education on this matter shortly. If these talks will prove
fruitful, the Institute will move in the spring of 1987.
