Radical Collections: Re-examining the roots of collections, practices and information professions
Do archivists ‘curate’ history? And to what extent are our librarians the gatekeepers of knowledge?
Libraries and archives have a long and rich history of compiling ‘radical collections’- from Klanwatch Project in the States to the R. D. Laing Archive in Glasgow- but a re-examination of the information professions and all aspects of managing those collections is long overdue.
This book is the result of a critical conference held at Senate House Library in 2017. The conference provided a space to debate the issues and ethics of collection development, management and promotion.
This book brings together some key papers from those proceedings. It shines a light on pressing topical issues within library and information services (LIS)- to encompass selection, appraisal and accession, through to organisation and classification, and including promotion and use. Will libraries survive as victims of neoliberal marketization? Do we have a responsibility to collect and document ‘white hate’ in the era of Trump? And how can a predominantly white (96.7%) LIS workforce effectively collect and tell POC histories

Bioactives in Fruit:Health Benefits and Functional Foods
Apples are a global commodity and are considered to impart important dietary health properties. Apple fruit contain a number of key bioactive compounds with evidence of synergistic activity. A number of the bioactives are pigment or pigment-related compounds and the levels vary according to genotype and may be governed by developmental, environmental or interventional factors.
This chapter summarises the major bioactive classes present in apple and pear. It examines the current understanding of bioavailability and will consider the empirical evidence for their activity. A description of bioactive biosynthesis and regulation, and potential strategies for bioactive improvement will be made
