Library News

Those members who frequent the Sevenoaks Branch of the County Library Service should note that in future access will be provided to the archive collection by appointment only.

Whilst it is regrettable from the point of view of the serious, responsible and trained researcher, the librarian there reports that their hitherto liberal policy does not meet County Council standards and so must cease.

A trained officer will be in attendance on Tuesdays and at other times by appointment. Users should telephone the reference desk, 0732 453284. Prior details of the documents required would be appreciated. The books in the local studies collection remain accessible during all library hours.

Peter Draper,
Hon. Librarian, K.A.S. Library, Maidstone Museum
