Cohomology Operations and Obstructions to Extending Continuous Functions - by N.E. Steenrod 1957
A version of these notes eventually appeared as N. E. Steenrod, Cohomology operations, and obstructions to extending
continuous functions, Adv. Math. 8 (1972), 371–416. Thanks to Timothy Porter for pointing this out!

Here are two papers of Don Anderson's provided by Claude Schochet:
His thesis A New Cohomology Theory and a paper on Universal Coefficient Theorems for K-theory.
-
Lectures on Homology Operations, Lectures by Clint McCrory, notes taken by Dave Damiano and James Stormes (Chapter 2) and Kent Johnson (Chapter 3)
According to Clint, the planned Chapter 1 was never written, but Chapters 2 and 3 are self-contained.

Notes on Algebraic Topology by Saunders MacLane, 1951
-
Plongements sous-analytiques d’espaces stratifiés de Thom-Mather. This is Laurent Noirel’s thesis, University of Provence, 1996. He shows that every abstract (Thom-Mather) stratified set can be embedded as
a (Whitney stratified) subanalytic set in some Euclidean space; semialgebraically if the stratified set is compact.
And here are some links to notes on other web sites.
