The Working Class Movement Library (WCML) which is located at 51 The Crescent, Salford, U.K. M5 4WX
is a collection of English language books, periodicals, pamphlets, archives and artefacts, concerned with the activities, expression and enquiries of the labour movement, its allies and its enemies, since the late 1700s.
The Library holds an extensive Spanish Civil War archive which includes an impressive collection of letters written by men from the Greater Manchester area, some of whom, sadly, lost their lives in what is regarded
by many as the first battle of the Second World War.
It also holds the records of the National Amalgamated Union of Labour which was recently deposited by The General Municipal Boilermakers.
