Scope:Contains case files handled by the East London Advice Office.

The "Series" field in the Cory Library database have been used to create the collection titles (according to provenance) as the Cory Library does not organise materials into numbered collections but rather uses a sequential accession number system as deposits come in. Researchers looking to locate these "collections" need to make that explicit to the staff to locate materials. Each unit in each of these "collections" has the correct Cory Library location number on it.

Media: Text documents; Still images

Themes:Advice Offices (pre or post 1995); Economy; Labour; Repression

Administrative / biographical history:There is no ref code as the Cory Library does not organise materials into numbered collections but rather uses a sequential accession number system as deposits come in. When entered into the Cory database, however, a collection is assigned in the "Series" field according to their provenance. This is the how the collection names were assigned to the Cory Library Holdings. Each unit in each of these "collections" has the correct location number on it.

Condition of access / use: Some access conditions apply to portions of the collection.
