Staff moved into Glamorgan Archives at the beginning of January. The entire Collection had been moved in by then and the searchrooms in the former building were operational right up to 24 December. Group visits and meetings have already begun in the new building, mail is being answered, but with the IT and telephone systems not yet fully installed and some essential fit-out items awaiting delivery the Office will not be fully operational for a few more weeks.
Updates will appear on this web site as they occur.
During
the closure period we will continue to respond to written
enquiries, and fulfil our obligations under the Freedom
of Information Act and Environmental Impact Regulations
