Locating

Locating an archive or manuscript can involve a number of steps and tools. You may need to first discover which repository holds the material you wish to consult and how to gain access to it. It will then be necessary to fully understand the arrangement of the particular archive or manuscript collection you are using. To do this you may need to use the finding aid or manuscript catalogue.
