Grass Roots Books was Manchester's radical bookshop from 1971 - 1990, becoming the largest outside London and a workers co-operative. Some former workers have now collected memories and archive material about Grass Roots. Join us for a launch of the Grass Roots Books archive at Archives+ at Manchester Central Library on Monday 7th November. If you drop-in between 5.30 – 7.30pm you will have the chance to see the archive and radical books and ephemera from the period. We are also seeking recollections from customers "What did you buy there?" "Did you use the noticeboards?" "What did it mean to you?" Send your memories to [email protected] . Grass Roots Books archive material will also be on display throughout November at Archives+.
