In January of 1985 New York University was given an extraordinary gift. Through the joint efforts of Dr. Debra E. Bernhardt, head of NYU's Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives, and Martin Lapan, then Executive Director of the Jewish Labor Committee, 850 boxes of the historical records of the JLC were transferred to the Archives. This vast collection, a total of more than three million pages of documentation and ten thousand photographs, posters, and graphics, records the work of the Committee from its founding in 1934 through the early 1980s.
