| Description | Some records from the Green Party (UK) have been placed among the records of the European Green Archive at Teesside University Library. The European Green Archive "covers the period 1972 to the present, with the main body of material from 1985 to 1995. Deposited by various members of the party or other green organisations over time, the collection now stands at approximately 95 linear meters; it includes policy documents, conference proceedings, press releases, minutes of meetings, manifestos, magazines, newsletters, Campaigns, briefings etc. Some elements of the collection are personal to past or present members of the Green Party and comprise collections in their own right." The collection also contain records from other European parties, e.g. the French Green Party.
