Do
you have a collection of old family documents and photographs
at home?
Advice
Our
conservation staff are always happy to offer advice on how
to best store and care for these documents. You can contact
us by email, telephone or mail to discuss your records; if
necessary we can arrange a consultation.
Purchase
storage and packaging material
Storing
materials correctly is a big step towards ensuring their preservation
for the future. Purchasing a small amount of packaging materials
for personal use can be expensive. The Glamorgan Record Office
therefore offers these items for sale. Full details of the
range stocked, along with the prices can be found below. Please
contact us to arrange purchase.

Outside
work
Glamorgan
Record Office is fortunate to have the services of a full
time conservator, along with a team of preservation staff.
We are more than happy to share this expertise with outside
organisations who are not in a position to conduct conservation
or preservation work 'in-house'.
There are currently limitations on this work due to the on-going
packaging project underway in preparation for a move to new
premises. Nevertheless we will strive to offer advice as best
we can in these circumstances. Queries should be directed
to Michael Hodgson, Conservator at Glamorgan
Record Office
Once
we have moved to our new premises, we will expand the external
conservation services we offer.
