The visit will consist of a behind the scenes tour for about an hour. After the tour we'll spend some time in the search room where items will be on display for  attendees to take a closer look at. Northumberland Archives will also display some of the rare books from the Northumberland Libraries Local Reference collection. The Head of Archives, Sue Wood will be available for a Q&A session.

About the Northumberland Archives:

Archives store the raw stuff of history. We take care of records that provide evidence of the lives of people in the past. These collections are unique and so are kept securely.
Our tours give you the opportunity to see behind the scenes and through the security doors! Learn more about how archives are kept and the range of our collections.
