Archivist, LJMU Special Collections and Archives

Vicki Caren

Explore Your Archive is a joint campaign delivered by the National Archives and the Archives and Records Association.
This year we are holding tours for our staff and our cultural partners, encouraging them to explore LJMU Special Collections and Archives; to explore their archive. Come along and learn more about our collections and how we can work together in the future.
The LJMU Special Collections and Archives hold unique and distinctive primary sources which can be used by students to inspire their academic work, by researchers making new discoveries and by all interested members of the public who would like to learn more.
Our specialism in post war popular culture covers the following categories: Arts, Photography and Fashion (Liddell Hart, Femorabilia); Liverpool Theatre and Writing (Everyman Theatre, Liverpool’s Royal Court, Unity Theatre and Willy Russell Archives); Popular Music and Counter Culture (England’s Dreaming: The Jon Savage Archive, Situationist International: The John McCready Archive and the Barry Miles archives); LJMU History and Special Collections (Stafford Beer).
Visitors on these Explore Your Archive tours will see our growing Femorabilia collection of girl’s comics and women’s magazines, programmes from local theatres, tickets and flyers from Eric’s club, photographs and fanzines from the punk era, clothing and uniform from our founding colleges and artefacts from the Stafford Beer collection.
Tours will be available during Wed 23, Thu 24 and Fri 25 at 11am for 1 hour.
