Included in this collection is vast research about the Socialist workers movement with extreme focus on the Progressive Miners of America union including newspaper clippings, articles, interviews, and archival research.

There is also extensive research about the people involved with the Progressive Miners of America and their spouses and other similar feminist/feminine auxiliary unions primarily the Illinois Women’s Auxiliary; this research also used similar means as listed above.

Unfortunately, the archives do not have the audio recordings of the interviews done rather, the archives only have transcripts and the questions that were asked during these interviews.
