Special Collections and Archives Spotlight: APWU Local 888
The Records of the American Postal Workers Union (APWU), Local 888 in Meyer Library’s Special Collections and Archives consists of 54 cubic feet of materials pertaining to the Springfield postal workers union. The group became the United Federation of Postal Clerks, Local 888 in 1949, but the bulk of the collection documents the mid-1970s to 1998. The collection offers a comprehensive look at union meeting minutes, financial records, and grievance files for most of those years.
The collection also contains photographs and publications, such as the early 1960s publications and photos from 1981 pictured above.
