NOVEMBER 2024 LECTURE: HERITAGE AND THE COMMUNITY – TOP TIPS FROM THE LOCAL STUDIES TOOLKIT
Local Studies librarians from CILIP, the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals, talk about their freely accessible online guide.
Wednesday, 20 November, 2pm. Online by Zoom and free to attend.
Heritage resources can make a difference to individuals: the young couple in their first house who visited because they had chopped down some trees which were inside their fence only to find that their neighbour claimed the land and the trees; the schoolteacher who said that her students’ A level results had improved as a result of class visits to the local studies library; the family who were helped to find essential evidence about a local company and were able to obtain compensation for the loss of a loved one.
