Administrative / biographical history:
The collection comprises the papers, including many press cuttings, of Joseph Madin,
Sheffield trades-unionist and Labour Party activist, together with his personal library of
books and pamphlets. Other ephemera such as election pamphlets are included.
Joseph Madin (1892-1967) was a local trades unionist and co-founder of the Sheffield Labour
College. He was born in July 1892 at Crookes, Sheffield, and after an education in Sheffield
Council schools became a turner by trade. Brought up an Anglican, he moved away from the
Church in his youth, becoming a socialist at the age of 14, soon following his two elder
brothers into the Socialist Labour Party.
In 1914 he joined the Amalgamated Society of Engineers (later the Amalgamated
Engineering Union) and served as a shop steward at Hadfields, Tinsley, during the First
World War. Subsequently he held numerous other posts in the AEU, serving as member of
the District Committee, as Branch President and as District President, and serving on the
Sheffield Trades Unionist and Labour Council over a period of 47 years, ultimately holding
office as President from 1946 to 1960. As President of the Sheffield Trades and Labour
Council he sat on the City Council Labour Group and Executive Committee for seven years,
and was also a delegate from his AEU branch to the Park Constituency Labour Party, 19261930 and 1947-1967. From 1949 he was an Executive Committee member of the Yorkshire
Regional Council of the Labour Party, being appointed its Vice-Chairman in 1952.
Madin helped to establish the Sheffield Labour College in 1919, becoming its organiser, and
it was on the initiative of the Sheffield College, together with the Labour Colleges of London,
Manchester and Scotland that the National Council of Labour Colleges was founded. From
1918 to 1934 he was a tutor and held classes in Sheffield, South Yorkshire and North
1
Derbyshire on Economics, Industrial and Social History, Social Development, Philosophy
and Chairmanship, as well as delivering many lectures to AEU branches during the period.
During the Second World War he helped to form the Sheffield Fabian Society, holding the
office of President from 1957 until his death. He edited Sheffield Forward, the organ of the
Sheffield Labour Party, and was on the editorial board of Socialist Commentary, the Fabian
Society’s national publication.
Apart from his Labour and Trade Union activities, Madin served on the Rent Tribunal from
1946, became a Justice of the Peace in 1947 and became a member of the Board of
Governors of Sheffield Teaching Hospitals in 1948. In 1952 he was appointed to the Court of
Sheffield University, and his work on behalf of the Labour movement and his other activities
were recognised in 1959 by the conferment of an honorary LL.M. degree by the University.
In later life he returned to the Church and helped to found the Sheffield Industrial Mission.
Madin died on 3rd February 1967 and later that year a Joe Madin Memorial Trust for
educational work was set up.

NOTES ON THE ARRANGEMENT OF MADIN'S PAPERS, BOOKS AND PAMPHLETS
The papers in sections 1 - 14 have been arranged according to the contents of the original
packets in which Madin sorted them, while the original order of papers in his filing cabinet
(sections 15 - 21) has also been retained.
Madin's collection of books and pamphlets has been arranged into three sections (22 – 24) by
publishers and chronologically by date of publication within sections. The three sections
consist of:
1) Items relating to Sheffield
2) Items published by political parties; by publishing firms identified with a political
viewpoint, e.g. the Socialist Labour Party; or by organisations which are non-party
but which have a corporate viewpoint, e. g. the Engineering and Allied Employers’
National Federation.
3) Items referred to as 'General Books', the majority of which are political but
published by commercial publishing houses.
Items on the following list marked with an asterisk* will remain closed. Those marked with
two asterisks** will remain closed until 30 years after their creation.
