Content DescriptionReturn to Top

The Union Labor Collection contains leaflets, pamphlets, handbooks, book-length literature, and comic books concerning union labor, the bulk of which was published by labor unions including the AFL-CIO and the UAW. The majority of the material dates from the early 1950’s up to the mid 1970’s.

Almost half of the items in this collection are union agreements, contracts, policies and rules booklets as well as individual union constitution and by-laws publications. These items were originally pulled aside as a separate collection (the Union Contract Collection) and were incorporated into this collection in 2014. Handbooks produced by a specific union have been grouped with other materials relating to that particular union and have been subcategorized under the Handbooks subject heading.

Some of the materials in this collection relate to the Civil Rights movement of the 1940s and 1950s. These items have been categorized under the Anti-Discrimination / Civil Rights subject heading. If materials relating to civil rights were produced by a specific union, those items have been grouped with other publications produced by that organization.
