Temporary Closure Notice

Our archive collections are currently closed to visitors as we undertake an audit related to our DAT project; appointments will be possible from January 2025.

Visiting the Archive

Please email the APGRD at least two weeks in advance to request an appointment. Appointments are typically offered on Mondays and Tuesdays. Special arrangements may be possible if you cannot come on these days, or if you are a research visitor requiring a longer block of time. Please note the APGRD is always closed on Fridays.

    • The reference library is free to browse in the Study Room but the archive collections are not - items must be requested in advance of any visit.
