Since 2018 a lot of our #ArchiveVolunteers have been working on updating our Schools Admissions Databases. We are now pleased to announce that we have a master index for all school admissions up to the end of 1924. This index will be launched at an event on Sat 9th May #Archive30

For #ArchiveVolunteers, we look back at our exhibition ‘Pragati Kendra: 70 Years of Progress’, when members of Mahila Manch didn’t just visit—they became a part of the journey. As volunteers, they engaged with…. instagram.com/p/DXji2LvDcAk/… @ARAScot @explorearchives #Archive30

Day 26: #ArchiveFoodAndDrink #Archive30 Whilst we have rules around consuming food and drink inside the Archives itself, some records in our collection highlight the continued cultural and economic significance of food and home-grown produce within our community. @FalklandsGov

Todo gran proyecto comienza con un primer paso... y con muchas estanterías por llenar! Hoy en #Archive30 retrocedemos a los #IniciosDelArchivo de la @uclm_es De este pasillo vacío a los miles de expedientes que custodiamos hoy😮 #ArchiveBeginnings #UCLM #ArchivoUCLM @ARAScot

Day 27 @ARAScot #Archive30 #ArchiveBeginnings Strictly speaking before 1908!! Recent work on the history started nearly 20years ago with preparations➡️Centenary of Whitchurch Hospital What a journey it’s been so far #MentalHealthHistory #Centenary 📷 setting up in 2008

The oldest document in the Dundee Town Council collection is this charter from Robert the Bruce. It is dated 1327, so that means next year it will be 700 years old. How do you think we should celebrate? 🤔 #ArchiveBeginnings #Archive30

Day 27: #archivebeginnings #Archive30 Whilst our collections predominantly start with the arrival of Governor Moody in 1841, we do hold some correspondence relating to the Islands from the 1830's. @FalklandsGov @FalklandsinUK
