The Modern Records Centre at the University of Warwick has recently launched its catalogues via a new database on the internet. This now enables cross-searching of a large part of its collections and will bring many more sources for labour and social history to light. As well as a cross-search facility we have provided short cuts to the larger and more heavily used collections such as the Trades Union Congress and the recently completed archives of the Transport and General Workers Union.
