Reduced Service from 15 July

In preparation for The Big Move there will be a reduced service from 15 July.

The current centre in Mount Pleasant Street, Coseley will open to the public on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10am to 4pm, from July 15. As space will be limited people are advised to book their visit in advance. Original archive material will not be available from this date. However a selection of local history material will be available, along with microfilms of parish registers, newspapers, directories, census records and catalogues.

The service will also continue to be contactable by phone and email between Tuesdays and Fridays, from10am to 4pm.
.
The Coseley centre will close to the public from 1 October when The Big Move to the new centre in Dudley will get underway. Until the archives service opens to the public in January 2014 a phone and email enquiry service will be available, along with family history and ancestry courses, exhibitions, and a programme of events. Bookings will also be taken for tours of the new centre – on offer in January when it opens.
