| CustodialHistory | The majority of this collection was donated to LJMU Special Collections & Archives in 2014, with significant contributions made by the late Nickianne Moody, former Head of Media and Cultural Studies at LJMU, Dr Mel Gibson of Northumbria University, and Dr Jo Knowles of LJMU's Media, Culture, and Communication programme with the specific purpose of preserving 'ephemera' associated with women and girls' history and material studies which was otherwise at risk of significant loss due to lack of collecting value. The ongoing annual lecture series on Femorabilia has been named the Nickianne Moody Memorial Lecture Series in recognition of the contributions made by the late Nickianne Moody. |
