此展板簡介「陳明銶教授學術藏書」中的香港工運剪報資料及索引。

陳明銶教授致力研究工運,藏品中包括一套有關香港工運剪報的資料,來源主要涵蓋30年代末期至40年代期間在香港出版的主要報章及小量其他亞洲鄰近地區報章。 剪報資料可分為剪報 (複印本) 及索引兩大部份,結合起來,構成一組彌足珍貴的工運剪報剪報檔案。

◆ 主要部分 : 工運剪報 (複印本)
剪報來自30份不同報章,最早出版日期可追溯至1928年,其餘多為30年代末至40年代出版的文章。每份獨立剪報均為複印本並被重新整理於A4紙上,附註報章來源及日期。剪報主要按報章來源及出版日期排序 (個別報章以特定主題整理),條理清晰。經整理後的剪報長約6呎,按報章來源及日期放置於14個檔案內。

剪報索引
剪報附有兩套索引,以助查閱報章內容 :

  • 索引列表
    用單行原稿紙,以手寫形式紀錄與工運相關的新聞標題,共約400頁。 索引以特定報章來源為單位,順以出版日期,註明於來源報章的印行頁碼,個別條目更附有手畫圖註,指明該文章於原刊報頁中的刊印位置。
  • 索引咭
    用12.7 cm x 7.6 cm目錄咭,按「報章來源」及「工運相關主題」分別製作兩組合共超過800張索引咭。目錄咭上紀錄了與特定主題相關的報章、出版日期及簡單說明。
