Abstract

The Printed Ephemera Collection on the American Federation of Teachers is an artificial collection of materials assembled by the Tamiment Library staff including fliers, pamphlets, constitutions, newspaper clippings and other materials accumulated gradually over the years through purchases, donations, standing orders with publishers, organizations, and bookstores, and through exchanges with other special library collections and by ongoing collecting by staff.

Historical/Biographical Note

The Tamiment Library, New York University, a special collection documenting the history of United States radicalism, labor, and progressive social action, accumulated this artificial collection of printed ephemera gradually over the years through purchases, donations, standing orders with publishers, trade unions and other organizations. Ongoing collecting by staff is another significant means for acquiring printed ephemera for the collection.

The Library's Trade Union Printed Ephemera Files include material generated by federations and national, regional and local bodies, as well as departments and divisions of trade unions. While a small portion of the material is international in scope or associated with other regions of the United States, the majority of the collection relates to the New York metropolitan area.

Files are arranged alphabetically and chronologically within. Collection is organized into two series.
