You and your Archive
As well as looking after the Council's records, the Archive accepts
private collections.
Over the years, many individuals and groups have gifted or
deposited their records with us. By doing so, they have helped the
region's history and culture to survive. Their collections are the
basic tools of learning and understanding the region's past.
Any records passed to us are stored in the purpose-built
repository at the AK Bell Library in environmentally controlled
conditions. Management of the collections includes making them
available for consultation in the searchroom, supervised by Archive
staff.
We are always glad to hear of any collections relating to Perth and
Kinross. If you think you have material which may be of interest,
you can contact the Archive for information and
advice.
We can either visit you or view the records here in the Archive. We
can discuss on what terms you would like to deposit your records,
or if you prefer
we can advise you on the care of your records.
