Open House - Caring for your family archive

Do you have documents, sound recordings, photographs and other memorabilia relating to your current or previous homes stuffed away in a cupboard somewhere? To celebrate Open House at the British Library we invite you to visit our team of conservators and learn about how best to care for these objects and to protect your own family archive for future generations.

Please note that we are not able to give valuations or provide secure storage for items while you visit other parts of the Library.



During Open House there will also be talks about the Asian & African collections

To be held at the Centre for Conservation, British Library.
