Historyczność akt spółdzielni na przykładzie Kujawskiej Spółdzielni Mieszkaniowej w Inowrocławiu
Historicity of housing cooperative records on the example of the Kujawy Housing Cooperative in Inowrocław

Summary/Abstract: The historicity of the cooperative’s documentation can be considered in the aspect of historical documentation created before 1945 as well as documentation that may have historical value in the future, i.e.: files of collegial bodies, technical documentation, or photographic documentation also as a part of chronicles. The Kujawy Housing Cooperative was a result of the merger of several cooperatives, and its roots date back to the “Zagroda” housing cooperative established on the basis of the German Gartenstadt Genossenschaft Hohensalza (Garden City Cooperative). From the preserved minutes of collegial bodies, we gain basic knowledge about the functioning of the cooperative and the development of the city. The KSM Archive contains also technical documentation created during the construction of housing estates and investment preparation documentation. An example of historical records is technical documentation from 1912 – 6 building plans at 23 Sienkiewicza Street handed over to the State Archives in Bydgoszcz, Inowrocław branch. Photographic documentation includes photos from the construction of housing estates and photos from the activities of community clubs, also as part of cooperative chronicles, presenting history on a micro scale – the development of housing estates and the lives of city residents over the years.
