Forthcoming disruption to online services

Users of our website may experience two brief periods of disruption over the next few days as we carry out routine maintenance work of our online services and technical infrastructure.

On Wednesday 30 October, our website will be unavailable for around 15 minutes at 08:00 GMT – users will still be able to access Discovery to search our collection.

On Monday 4 November, all online services (including our website and Discovery) will be unavailable for up to two hours, between 17:00 and 19:00 GMT.

We apologise for any inconvenience that these essential works may cause.
