eHive Account Details

Glasgow Women’s Library is the only Accredited Museum in the UK dedicated to women’s lives, histories and achievements, with a lending library, archive collections and innovative programmes of public events & learning opportunities.

Our collection of museum artefacts champions, celebrates and teaches us about how women have shaped lives locally, nationally and internationally. The objects, all donated, chart women's historical and contemporary achievements and contributions, contextualising the connections across the many spheres that women inhabit within the ‘personal’ and the ‘political.’ The collections include Suffragette memorabilia, radical feminist campaigning materials, girls’ annuals, recipe books, knitting patterns, badges and protest banners, contemporary artworks, rare books, LGBTQ+ t-shirts and the National Museum of Roller Derby!

We're in the process of cataloguing and digitising our museum collections, then adding them to eHive - please bear with us! Where items have been fully digitised (for research purposes only) this is noted in the object description field. If you can't find what you're looking for you can contact us for more information.
