Find case studies on collections management and development and care of archival collections.
The project blog has created a focus for researching and presenting the collection, and has created a number opportunities for outreach activities.
Dorset History Centre (DHC) has been actively engaged in the collecting strand of Archiving the arts since its launch.
The project was designed to investigate, catalogue and make accessible the Music Hall and Variety archive collected over 50 years by the writer, actor and comedian Roy Hudd.
The work included re-sorting the case papers into order, removing all pins and paperclips and inserting specialist paper wraps to help preserve the original documents.
The aim of the project was to repair the Aylsham Lancaster Court Roll, which would also allow for the future digitisation of the document.
The project resulted in a specific archive accession to represent the lives and histories of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered (LGBT) community in Plymouth.
