These files contain the annual general meeting programs; a range of associated notices, minutes, committee reports, financial statements, and social event material; precis of papers delivered and the texts of a couple of addresses by Professor Bliss who was president of the Society for 2010-2011. Accompanying these files are a number of articles on Sir William Osler; copies of the Oslerian, the Society’s newsletter; the membership directory for 2011; and some copies of the John P. McGovern Award Lectureship, including the address delivered by C. David Naylor in 2012. Precis of addresses Professor Bliss gave at these meetings are included in the programs.
