It is in the basement, hence the name of this newsletter.
Visitors often comment that Archives seem so often to be stored in a basement.
F or many years now I have planned to circulate a regular newsletter, but alas, although always on my To Do list the task kept being transferred to my next list of activities. I must say I wonder also. It is, however, to make contact with all those who are interested in what the Presbyterian Church is about, what is its ethos and how and why each of our congregations arose, when and where, and just how we can best preserve and make use of our archival treasures. The Archives Office provides a resource for individuals, congregations, presbyteries, organisations and General Assembly. We can provide information on anything you want to know about records and the managing of them - from how to undertake the writing of a parish history, to gathering group archives, to the preserving of photographs, and we even offer to speak to groups.
