A collection of printed ephemera belonging to de Majo was donated to TU Dublin School of Creative Arts. It includes books, magazines, journals, print samples and ephemera dating from c.1950–97.

ALSO is an ancillary programme of display and publication curated by Brenda Dermody and Peter Maybury in the School of Creative Arts. The programme runs throughout the academic year displaying work from undergraduate students and recent graduates alongside examples of practice and print media from various collections.
