A note about permissions
The Mass Observation correspondents whose work is available through the Observing the 1980s project were all contacted individually and granted permission for their writing to be digitised and accessed online.
Where possible original authors, publishers or copyright holders of the Ephemera documents were contacted and their permission sought to make the material available. In a few cases it was not possible to identify authors, or we were unable to make contact with them. If you are one of those authors or copyright holders and wish to get in touch with us, please contact library.specialcoll@sussex.ac.uk
Similarly, the British Library Sound Archive sought permission from those interviewees whom they could contact, but not everyone could be traced. If you are one of those interviewees and wish to get in touch with us, please contact oralhistory@bl.uk
