The Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) Printed Ephemera Collection is an artificial collection, collected and assembled by the Tamiment Library over the course of several decades. The collection consists of printed ephemera such as event fliers, brochures, leaflets, pamphlets and other publications, covering the years when SDS was under the auspices of the League for Industrial Democracy in the early 1960s through the 1970s. Major actions of SDS are represented in the collection, including their first official national convention at Port Huron, Michigan and the resulting political manifesto known as the "Port Huron Statement" as well as the March on Washington in April of 1965 opposing the Vietnam War. Also included in the collection are materials from various local and regional SDS chapters from around the country, most notable are New York University, Columbia University and other New York schools, Queens College, City College of New York, City University of New York, Brooklyn College, and Stony Brook University.
