Come along to immerse yourselves in a newly acquired collection of materials from mid ’70s to mid ’80s on campaigns demanding improvement of the council estates’ condition and against their sale, rent strikes and various publications on the political economy of social housing and other interesting issues relevant to contemporary housing struggles.
Come and join us to find out about the process of scanning and cataloguing, and learn how to use our bookscanner. Please bring a laptop if you have one as we don’t have enough computers to go around. Lunch will be provided, and if you have any questions please contact fani@maydayrooms.org.
