	AIM25: Birkbeck College: Birkbeck College Archives
		Administrative/Biographical history: Birkbeck College was founded as the London Mechanics Institution in 1823 with George Birkbeck (1776-1841) as the first President and the aim of instructing members "in the principles of the Arts they practise, and in the various branches of science and useful Knowledge".
		In 1894 Birkbeck Institute was linked with the City of London College and the Northampton Institute (now City University) to form the City Polytechnic under a Charity Commission scheme approved in 1891 to facilitate funding for these institutions by the City Parochial Foundation.
		The City Polytechnic was dissolved in 1906 and Birkbeck College made its first application to become part of the University of London in 1907; it had had recognised teachers, and therefore "internal" students, since 1900.
