Posted on behalf of "Zoe Rees" <zoe.rees@BIRMINGHAM.GOV.UK> Wendy B'ham List Admin --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Birmingham City Archives - Notice of Reduced Service The lifts in Central Library are currently experiencing repeated breakdowns. To rectify this the Goods lift will shortly be taken out of service from Monday 11th December until approximately January 27th 2007. This will prevent the City Archives from fetching documents from our basement store in the usual way. Please telephone 0121 303 4217 in advance of your visit, to ascertain whether we will be able to serve your requests. While the lift is out of service we will only be able to retrieve archives that are small and light. We will only be able to do two document collections per day, one before the start of day at 10 am, and one between 2 - 3pm. If you wish to visit us in the morning, please contact us at least one day before your visit so that we can collect your documents. If you wish to visit us in the afternoon, please make sure that we have your request by 12 noon. On Saturdays, only one document collection will be made before we open, so please order the day before. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you. Not all of our archives will be affected by this reduced service, e.g. Parish Registers, Archives of Soho, Hardman Collection will be served as normal. Birmingham City Archives December 2006

Hi Wendy /list I was going to post this the other day , but I forgot ,this email has reminded me of it , At the moment I am out of action with a torn ligament, in my leg , i was going too go and recheck a bap of a william carter in 1890 mar qtr in the registers of St Cyprians , yardley, I have in my hand written notes this Bap at St cyprians, but somehow the notes do not include mother / father etc.although all the 6 pages of others of my surname interests are complete. Is anyone going there this week or next, and can they look it up for me , should take only 15 minutes or so , apart from that i,d have to sign up again for a "carn card". this would be on the 7th floor archives, up the spiral staircase. thanking you gary hodge Wendy Archer wrote: > Posted on behalf of "Zoe Rees" <zoe.rees@BIRMINGHAM.GOV.UK> > > Wendy > B'ham List Admin > > --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- > > Birmingham City Archives - Notice of Reduced Service > > The lifts in Central Library are currently experiencing repeated > breakdowns.
