    1. [SXP] Sussex Family History Group at The Keep
    2. Stephen Selby
    3. Regular users of the Sussex Family History Group library will know that both the library at Lewes and East Sussex Record Office have been closed for some time, pending the move to The Keep, at Falmer, just outside Brighton. The Keep is a state of the art archive holding the collections of East Sussex Record Office, the Royal Pavilion & Museums Local History Collections and the University of Sussex Special Collections, together with the SFHG library. Full details of The Keep are on the web site, at www.thekeep.info , including details of how to find us. The good news is that we have completed the move and The Keep will be opening to the public tomorrow, 19th November, from 9.30am to 5pm. The Keep is open Tuesday to Friday 9.3am to 5pm and 9,30am to 4pm on Saturday. Currently our own opening hours are a little limited, as the SFHG library is a separate unit within the building, and we are dependent on volunteer helpers to guide visitors around our collections and also to assist with research, where possible. We would welcome any suitable volunteers, who must be current members of SFHG. If you visit the Keep and are interested in helping or finding out more about what it involves, please contact one of our current volunteers at The Keep, or email our Librarian, Allison Caffyn, at librarian@sfhg,org.uk or me at grayscroft@gmail.com . See http://www.sfhg.org.uk/library.html for information on our collections; the full catalogue is currently being updated and should be available on the web site soon. Steve Selby
