Let’s make history

The 1992 Strike: Mass meeting of members in the Point Theatre, Dublin.
A special project is being launched to encourage both current and retired members to identify memorabilia, artefacts and documents in their possession relating to the history of the IBOA.
All material indentified to the project will be returned after being photographed or photocopied for the IBOA archive.
At the same time, we are also looking for volunteers to participate in creating an audio historical archive.
Members with particular reminiscences of the Union - in any of its aspects such as industrial relations issues, sports and social events or "celebrity" members, for example - will be asked to share their memories either in writing or by recording them on video or tape.
It is hoped that the results of this project may form part of a written history of the Union for publication to a wider audience in book form and on the internet.
If you are interested in taking part in this unique project, please contact the History Team at IBOA The Finance Union, IBOA House, Stephen Street Upper, Dublin 8, by phone at 01-4755908 or e-mail history@iboa.ie
