Members can join us for a free guided tour of the Library where you will get an overview of the services and resources available.

It’s a great way to find out what we have if you are a new member, or haven’t used the collections for a while. Once you’ve explored the highlights of the collections you can stay on to do some research and get assistance from the Volunteers.

HOW TO BOOK

Tours are held from 9am to 10am on a Thursday or Saturday - before the Library opens. This way we have uninterrupted access to all areas of the Library and don’t interrupt other researchers concentrating on their research. Tours are advertised in our Events Calendar, so check the calendar for the next available tour. Bookings are essential.

GROUP BOOKINGS

Family history groups can also make a group booking for a day tour of both the library and archives collections. These group bookings are available to members and non-members, and a fee is involved. Contact the Archives Officer for details and bookings.
