Working with archives – a collection of links

A few links about working with archives. I’ve started a page on this site with these links. At the moment it is just the links below, but intended to be a work-in-progress page and I’ll add other things that look useful. Suggestions welcome.

These are all by others, but if there is interest I might write up a few thoughts of my own, particularly about using them for the history of ideas.

The National Archives, How to use archives

Mary Morrisey, Royal Historical Society, Working in Archives

Laura Schmdt, Using Archives: A Guide to Effective Research

Royal Geographical Society, Getting started with archival research

Royal Geographical Society, Top ten tips for researching in archives

Will Pooley, Doing Archival Research

Kate Stewart – series at Medium

Alessandro Silvestri, Making History through Archives (review of Stéphane Péquignot et Yann Potin (dir.), Les conflits d’archives : France, Espagne, Méditerranée, Presses universitaires de Rennes)

Happy to have other suggestions and will update this page with things I think are useful.
