University of Glasgow Queen Margaret Union

Hey, this is my first post so if it's in the wrong place I'm sorry!
I've been lurking around the site for a few months now and I have to say that some of the stuff you guys have on here is pretty amazing. Since you all seem to know your stuff and have access to some amazing resources I figured you'd be a good place to start for my project
I am past president of the Queen Margaret Union at Glasgow Uni, and I'm ashamed to admit that it seems my predecessors over the last hundred odd years haven't been very good at documenting the history of the Union, particularly in pictures etc.
I was just wondering if anyone had/knew where to get pictures of the various old buildings the QM has lived in (as well as the current one up to about 1998!), mainly interiors. I think the two prior buildings to the current University Gardens monstrosity were the original Queen Margaret College building on Great Western Road and later, the John MacIntyre building on University Avenue.
Also, if anyone has old diaries, magazines or general QM memorabillia that they could scan in it would be greatly appreciated. We really need everything from day one until about seven years ago!
Thanks in advance,
Laura Kane
QMU President 2004 - 2005
