Mainly consists of correspondence between Kenny and a number of individuals involved in a documentary researched and presented by Colum Kenny for RTÉ television about 'The Tailor and Ansty’ (husband and wife Timothy [‘the Tailor’] and Anastasia ['Ansty'] Buckley). The Tailor and Ansty were the subjects of a book by Eric Cross about their storytelling and home in Gougane Barra, County Cork, which became a hub for notable figures of the Cork arts scene in the 1930s and 1940s such as writers Frank O'Connor and Seán Ó Faoláin, sculptor Seamus Murphy, students of the Irish language, and folklorists. The book was published in 1942 and banned soon after. The RTÉ documentary included interviews with Cross, Ó Faoláin, and the Tailor and Ansty's close friend Nancy McCarthy-Allitt, and recounted the aftermath of the banning; including an episode when the Tailor was forced by three priests to burn a copy of the Eric Cross book in his fireplace. The documentary also included dramatised accounts of debates which took place in Seanad Éireann in December 1942 following the banning of the book. The RTÉ documentary was broadcast on 31 October 1978.

WITS Organisation, Structures and Administration

Non-continuous run of newsletters published by WITS from nos. 1-48. The newsletters report on AGM meetings, interaction with universities in Ireland and in mainland Europe as well as regional reports and a noticeboard for members to publicise seminars and other meetings. Membership applications are also included in the newsletters along with contemporary accounts of female participation in fields of science and technology.

On 15-16 February 1993, the European Community Directorate General for Science Research and Development (DG XII) organised a workshop to assess the position of women working in science and technology research in Europe. This report is an outline of the workshop proceedings for WITS and for those who provided information on women in S&T research in Ireland for presentation to the workshop.

WITS is a voluntary, independent organisation advocating, connecting and acting for women to be full and vital participants in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). As a founder of WITS in 1990, Mulvihill was central to the organisation’s vision and overall aims. She also played a vital role in highlighting the often neglected role of women in the history of Irish science. This series of papers comprises of several sub-series detailing the various structures, governance, publications, correspondence and outreach of WITS from its foundation to its contemporary achievements.

Mulvihill produced and edited two books about historic Irish women scientists: Lab Coats and Lace (Dublin, 2009) and Stars, Shells and Bluebells (Dublin, 1997), (as its publisher, see WITS series for research material for this book). She also wrote a guide for more sustainable living in Drive like a Woman, Shop like a Man (Dublin, 2009). There are some research materials relating to this title within this series but the bulk of its material relates to her seminal book Ingenious Ireland: A County-by-County Exploration of Irish Mysteries and Marvels, which was originally published in 2002 and again after her death in 2019.

It is widely recognised as an outstanding piece of individual research that gave life to the memory of people and places in Ireland associated with scientific, medical and engineering achievements. Other writings within this series are poems written by Mulvihill soon after she left Trinity College in the 1980s and some preparation material for her Ingenious Dublin guidebook. However, the exhaustive research undertaken by Mulvihill for her seminal work provides the content for the most part.
