#WhyArchives? #Archive30 has made us think about how maybe some of our research should be located somewhere a little more accessible so that the next researcher doesn't need to start from scratch.
#IHBCReading2024 FREE Pre-conference webinar. Register at lnkd.in/de2pcWaT #enforcement #conservation #heritage #buildings
@CaacReading Indeed we would and we always wonder how on earth he did it by manual research and a typewriter and "without the internet". Simply astonishing.
The most #PopularItem in our archive is Sidney Gold's 'A Biographical Dictionary of Architects at Reading'. A mine of information on architects who worked in Reading up to 1930. We would be lost without it. #Archive30
@CaacReading A neighbour lived in the town centre when young. She says she used to open her window & would immediately know which direction the wind was coming from depending on whether she could smell beer or biscuits.
Smells of Reading: biscuits, beer, jam, the Whitley Whiff - some nice, some nasty have mostly disappeared. Our #FutureArchives should be considering olfactory heritage. #Archive30
This artwork was created by Imogen Harvey-Lewis is unmissable in our car park, It focuses on the people that make up our present day & historic community. Inclusive, uniting, a positive, encouraging message - the Archives is there for us all. #ArchivesForAll #Archive30 @ARAScot
Behind the scenes we are currently working on creating a video introduction to our building and facilities to make the Archive more accessible to all. Here is a draft still of our main entrance which we took during the initial planning stage #Archive30 #ArchivesForAll
All the walks in this year's #ReadingWalksFest are designed to link in with @reading_buses routes so please use our great bus company to get to the start of your walk this May. whatsonreading.com/venues/reading…
#ArchiveAdvice to ourselves - it helps if you put titles on photographs when you can still remember when you took them. Did we take the image below when parking meters first appeared on Kendrick Road in the Christchurch CA? #Archive30
@CaacReading We're afraid we know far less about the buildings and heritage of Reading than you do about the buildings and heritage Colchester!!
Where are we? Which of Reading's conservation areas are we in? We'll post the answer next Thursday.
What else would you expect to find in #BusinessArchives but a coat hanger! This wooden, adjustable hanger comes from the records of Jacksons department store, Reading. It's not all ledgers and accounts! #Archive30
This week we said a fond farewell to our Casework Director, Dr Clare Price (@InterWarChurch), who's off to pastures new at the Church of England. Here she shares some highlights and reflects on her 12 years at the Society. Thanks from all of us, Clare! ➡️c20society.org.uk/2024/04/23/goo…
Back in 2020 between COVID lockdowns we researched the history of Harris Arcade. Lots of help from @readinglibrary and @BerksArchives. Invoices from John Harris (Reading) Ltd / Great Western Motors in the records of the Bradley family (DEZ186) key. #BusinessArchives #Archive30
As the @CaacReading or posting where is this. A teaser spotted the other day on the walk back from Caversham to Baker Street. Central Reading. Having discovered it I phoned Mrs B who on my return wanted to know where I had left the ponies.

2018 - the year Reading’s half marathon was called off at the last minute because of snow. All the yellow signs for runners had already gone up. Image is the Abbey Gateway which was part of the route and where conservation works had been taking place. #SportArchives #Archive30

#WhyArchives No two days are the same. One minute you are helping an academic research the jute industry, then you are locating plans of the Tay Bridge landfall and then tracking down the identity of their father's war time sweetheart. And that's just answering emails! #Archive30
Last day of #Archive30 asks #WhyArchives We aim to preserve mountaineering history and make it available to all. Whether you've found out grandad was a member and want to see his climbs or are an academic doing research. Everyone should have access to history.
As part of our 50th celebrations we've been asking visitors to sign our birthday book. We've had some lovely messages showing the importance of archives We'd love to invite those who can't come in person to contribute using the hashtag #TeessideArchives50 #Archive30 #WhyArchives
#WhyArchives ? Because we believe in the importance of preserving and providing access to the records in our care that tell the story of Berkshire’s history #Archive30
Every Tuesday we test and tease folk with our weekly #WhereAndWhatIsIt #ColchesterConundrum So just how much do you see when you walk the ancient streets of #Colchester? Here's this week's little challenge. We'll post the answer on Friday afternoon.

This chicken in trousers is a very #PopularItem on display @TheMERL. It was the work of Richard Beale, who enjoyed doodling in his mathematical workbook to comic effect. For a possible explanation of this chicken’s sartorial elegance, see merl.reading.ac.uk/blog/2018/10/c… #Archive30 🐔👖
We're approaching the end of #Archive30, and today we're bringing you a #PopularItem from our collections. This jukebox supplements our POAAAM collection, and is always guaranteed to grab our students' attention. It's an excellent conversation starter!
