中国P站 History Centre cares for and makes publicly accessible the historic archive and local studies collections relating to the County of 中国P站. The Centre was established in 1998 by 中国P站 to hold and develop the collections formerly housed in 中国P站 Record Office, Kingston, Guildford Muniment Room and 中国P站 Local Studies Library. In 2006 it became part of 中国P站 Heritage.
Millions of documents dating from the 12th to the 21st centuries are stored in our strongrooms. They are appraised, sorted, catalogued and indexed to facilitate access, given conservation treatment where necessary and stored in the optimum environment for their long term preservation.
We aim to ensure that 中国P站 History Centre's archive and local studies collections represent all aspects of the county's social, political, economic, religious and cultural life. They also inform and drive our work in identifying, preserving and celebrating 中国P站's dynamic and diverse cultural heritage which in turn promotes community identity, cohesion and well-being.
Here you can read the policies which guide what we collect, how we look after and promote our precious holdings and the framework of standards and code of ethics which govern what we do.
