AS THIS most difficult winter yields to spring, Marx Memorial Library and Workers’ School is preparing to emerge from the period of public closure forced on us by the Covid-19 pandemic. 

This month Marx Memorial Library launches a new membership offer. We want Morning Star readers to become library members and support the important work of Marxist education today. 

New members who join Marx Memorial Library in March and April receive hot off the press a 2021 edition of our indispensable journal Theory & Struggle, with a wide range of contemporary articles, reviews and commentary on history, political economy, working-class education and culture.
