Archive Awareness Campaign

Mapping techniques and equipment have changed over the years from the use of notebooks to tablet PCs.

 

Archive Awareness Campaign was originally designed to be a celebration of the rich archive collections held within the UK. For the past seven years the British Geological Survey has hosted an annual event to demonstrate the variety of its archive holdings and their value to science.

Due to major site restructuring at BGS Keyworth we are currently unable to hold the event and have created this online display to showcase some of our unique and valuable collections.
