+ Newberry Library Acquires Valuable IWW (Wobbly) Materials
The Newberry Library, a Chicago-based pre-eminent humanities research library, has acquired an outstanding archive of publications and ephemera of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW, also known as the Wobblies) from a local Chicago couple.
“More than 100 years of Chicago labor history is documented in these rare and valuable materials and we’re proud to have them among our treasured new acquisitions,” said Paul Saenger, curator of rare books and collection development librarian. “This collection is uniquely Chicago and is a great addition to our already strong labor union historical materials. ”
