Osman Archive

The Osman Archive is named after Colin Osman, long-time Editor of Creative Camera. His collection of historic magazines, books, sound-recordings and photojournalism was acquired by the Tom Hopkinson Centre for Media Research to form the basis of its research archive. The collection includes:

It also houses rare books and documents on the history of British photojournalism.

The archive is an important component of JOMEC's research focus on popular visual journalism and democracy, and supports a variety of projects by both staff and PhD students. The Osman Archive can be accessed via the Bute Library.
