The Women's Action Coalition of Prince George's County is an organization that works to prevent discrimination against women. Subjects documented in the files include the International Women's Year, equality, Title IX, multicultural issues, education, and domestic violence. The Coalition's records contain minutes, bylaws, newsletters, and the history of the organization.
The Women's Studies pamphlet collection was assembled by two librarians at the University of Maryland at College Park and consists of working papers, reports, brochures, and newsletters. The items are arranged under 71 subject headings covering a wide range of issues including abortion; the Equal Rights Amendment; Maryland women; women around the world; and homeworkers. The collection also provides insight into the women's movement, particularly during the 1970s.
