The archive spans the existence of The London Institute and the University of the Arts London from the mid-1980s until the present day.

The archive holds material concerning the formation and governance of The London Institute under the aegis of the Inner London Education Authority, the Institute’s change to incorporated status and the transfer to university status as the University of the Arts London. It also records details of school and college mergers as well as institutional and academic developments.

The archive also includes material related to the staff and student experience of the institution such as marketing material, internal newsletters, student publications, course handbooks, prospectuses and research journals.

There is also a large collection of estates plans which depict institutional holdings dating back to the early twentieth century. Around a hundred of these have been digitised and the majority need extensive conservation treatment.

The collection of the Institutional Archive ran parallel to a programme of oral history recordings to capture the memories and experiences of both key decision-makers and long-serving academic, technical and operational staff.

The archive has a particular focus on Cockpit Gallery Holborn exhibition programme, with some material also relating to touring shows. This material includes posters, prints, invoices and cuttings. There is also some documentation of events, including transparencies and negatives of installation and buildings.

The gallery's shows covered a wide range of social and political issues from educational, activist and artistic perspectives, with a broad educational and community mindset.

It was part of a broader development of photographic practices in the 1970s and 1980s, concerning issues of social emancipation and representation. Some of the exhibitions were co-curated with participants or with other community groups or with school students who were encouraged to take portraits of each other, or self-portraits.

In other exhibitions, the gallery invited established photographers to show their work who were also dealing with issues of representation, such as Armet Francis, Anita Corbin, and Jo Spence.

'100 Months of Women’s Liberation with Spare Rib', 1980

Les Coleman (6 May 1945 - January 17 2013) was an artist, poet, sculptor, art lecturer, critic, and collector. A lifelong connoisseur and collector of the surreal, obscure and esoteric Coleman accumulated a unique, rare and significant literary and visual library in his lifetime. It is the latter which he donated to the University of Arts London.

Amongst the Les Coleman Collection is a significant collection of comics from North American underground [1968-1980] and alternative [1980-present] comic book movements. Perhaps the most significant component of the collection is Coleman's Robert Crumb material, which is possibly one of the largest in the UK. Other highlights in the collection include large collections of the work of Canadian comic book artist Julie Douchet and Serbian artist Aleksandar Zograf, complete runs of classic counter-cultural comics Arcade, Bijou Funnies and Raw. In addition to comics Coleman also acquired various signed and limited edition prints by comic book artists such as Charles Burns, Joe Coleman, Joost Swarte, Archer Prewitt and Aline-Kominsky Crumb. An admirer and champion of the art form Coleman organised and curated various comic exhibitions in his lifetime. A prominent British comic commentator and critic, Coleman was also in correspondence with various artists including Doucet, Zograf, Mack White, Jeff Johnson and Prewitt.

The second part of the Coleman collection is comprised of art, illustration and humour books from America, Australia, the UK and Europe (predominantly France and Belgium). Coleman's twin fascinations in this area were cartoons and surrealism, and his favoured artists range from the gentle newspaper gags of 'Larry' to the dark absurdist visions of Roland Topor. Other prominent artists in this part of the collection include Charles Addams, Edward Gorey, Saul Steinberg, HM Bateman, Glenn Baxter, Ivor Cutler, Maurice Henry, Sempé and Siné.

The third part of the collection is made up of Coleman's personal papers. Amongst this part of the collections there is a great deal of correspondence with his contemporaries in the art world such as painter, collaborator and teacher Patrick Hughes, the artist and children's' illustrator Tony Blundell, artist and colleague Charlie Holmes, artist and illustrator Chris Vine, French surrealist and publisher Marcel Mariën, and many more. Additionally there is a large collection of postcards and Christmas cards, many designed by the aforementioned artists. There is also some draft artwork and research material for a cartoon strip entitled 'Ying and Yang' which Coleman created in collaboration with Hughes. There is also a large collection of research material, primarily consisting of handwritten notes, annotated scans and photocopies, photographs, and sketches. Research material relates both to Coleman's teaching and curation careers.

This collection consists of the records of the National Reye's Syndrome Foundation (NRSF). It includes the papers of the founders of the charity, Audrey and Clifford Harrington, alongside records of Gordon Denney, and the papers of Dr Susan Hall.

The records predominantly relate to the administration of the charity, including records relating to the AGM, finances, publicity and Trustees of the NRSF. The collection includes a large amount of correspondence, particularly between parents of children affected by Reye's syndrome, clinicians, and the NRSF.

Records relating to the life of Gordon Denney provide an overview of the history and the achievements of the charity. The papers of Dr Susan Hall primarily relate to research on Reye's syndrome. To supplement the collection, a number of textbooks and research articles collected by the NRSF which directly relate to Reye's syndrome, aspirin use, and childhood illnesses are included.

The Collection contains examples of his design work for commercial companies, many commissioned through The Curwen Press for example, Transport for London. The largest section contains works for Fortnum & Mason department store, Piccadilly, London.

The records have been organised by the creating institutions. The clearest starting point for LCC was deemed to be 1949 when the separate founding schools combined, thus London School of Printing and Graphic Arts and the subsequent institutions are their own sub-fonds from LCC/2. LCC/1 contains the organisations and departments in separate subseries. These papers contain items relating to the administrative functions of the College and its non-teaching activities for example, prospectuses, yearbooks and photographs of the College and the local area. Some of these items were created, or collected to document the history of the organisation and its locality. Student work is also included.

In addition to these are materials that were used in teaching: Teaching Aids contains examples of work such as printing blocks, packaging, sample books and advertising that were used to example good practice in printing and design; LCC/* Posters were used both for teaching and for promotion of student and College activities, they have been divided because of this dual purpose and the difficulty in defining the original use. It is also possible that some were used for both purposes but at different times. These items are not yet catalogued.

The core of the archive constitutes the material that remained with E.H. Shepard following his donation of drawings and sketches to the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Cartoon Archive: personal, business, and fan correspondence; personal and family papers; personal ephemera; copies of books he wrote or illustrated; appointment diaries; sketchbooks; photographs; pencil, ink, and watercolour drawings; oil paintings; manuscript material; press cuttings, sales catalogues, and magazines.

In addition, material accumulated by the University of Surrey relating to E.H. Shepard has been catalogued as part of this collection. This accumulated material includes later editions of works illustrated or written by Shepard; books and reference material about Shepard; some photographs of locations specific to Shepard's life; and artwork by Shepard donated by third parties.

Four boxes featuring various examples of designs for Christmas cards.
