The Archives of the Trades Union Congress

"The Trades Union Congress (TUC) is the major British federation of labor unions, serving as a central coordinating agency for British unions since 1868, and acting as a major link between the unions and government, during this century. Among the items filmed from the TUC archives for this collection are its quarterly reports up to 1918, open letters, addresses, and records of debates in Parliament, as well as pamphlets and reports on organizing, on working conditions, and on labor's role in government, in foreign affairs, in worker education, and in defense policy and disarmament. Arranged chronologically, many of the pamphlets are personally authored by Sir Walter M. Citrine, leader for many years of the TUC"--The Library of Congress Guide to the Microform Collections in the Humanities and Social Sciences Division, online version.
