After 19 years as Librarian here, Alain Kahan is retiring at the end of March. He will still be around for a couple of days a week while his replacement is found and trained in.
The Trustees are advertising for a Librarian to assist them in the transfer of control from the local authority and to lead in continuing the development of this valuable collection as a major educational and research resource. Any qualified librarians interested in the post should contact us for more details.

To recognize serious study in labor and work history among undergraduate students, the New York Labor History Association will award the Barbara Wertheimer Prize of $100.00 for the best research paper written during the 2005-2006 academic year. The winning entry will, with permission, be posted in the NYLHA website. Please encourage your best undergraduate students to submit their work.
Papers on any aspect of labor or work history will be considered. Entries will be evaluated on the basis of scholarship and literary merit.
Applications are invited for the Edward Thompson Memorial Bursary. The bursary has been established by the Society for the Study of Labour History in honour of one of its distinguished founders and past Presidents. It is tenable at the Modern Records Centre, University of Warwick, Coventry, CV4 7AL, in the value of up to £200 per annum, in order to support research in the MRC archive.
The Labour History Archive and Study Centre holds the archives of the Labour Party and the British Communist Party as well as collections that document many aspects of the history of radical political struggle in the UK since the mid-nineteenth century.
As part of a programme of activities designed to promote the study of the collections to new audiences we are organising a day conference called Culture in Radical Politics.
