The Archive Service cannot be held responsible for any mistakes in information which is supplied. The West Yorkshire Archive Service restricts the amount of time it spends searching documents to one hour. Many of the records are on microfiche and can easily be copied. We are obliged to ask you to sign a form for copyright purposes, when you send payment. There are some restrictions on copying original documents, and if this happens in your case we will tell you.
Some documents are too fragile to consult, and access to others is restricted by law.
In that case you are advised to contact an independent record agent to undertake research on your behalf. A list of local independent record searchers is available here. You can, of course, engage a record agent in any case, if you do not wish to use West Yorkshire Archive Service Postal Research. West Yorkshire Archive Service Postal Research in no way affects the rights of members of the public to visit the offices of the West Yorkshire Archive Service personally to conduct their own research, free of charge.
