I am most grateful to Sherry for the info on Sheffield. I am coming to live there from Oct 25-Jan 29th. & am devastated to learn of the closure of the Archives. I had hoped to do a lot of research. >>11 Oct 2010 - Sheffield Archives will be closed from Monday, 11 Oct until late summer 2011. 11 Oct 2010 - Archives fiche and film and catalogues / finding aids (but not the card index) will be transferred to the Local Studies Library. 18 Oct 2010 - Archives fiche and film service will reopen at Local Studies. 4 Jan 2011 - Limited Archives document issue service will be made available at the Local Studies Library. Points to note: * There will be no document issue service at all between 11 Oct 2010 and 4 Jan 2011 (but see below re transcribing projects). * All of our events / workshops / lectures / displays etc. will continue as normal at a variety of venues (other than an introductory session to Archives which was scheduled for 13 October. This event has been cancelled.) * We will continue to produce the Newsletter throughout the closed period. * We will continue to Roger Lewry >>>(What does this mean??)
