Museum collections are an important resource for academic and personal study. Scholars and students use our material to further their work. Staff and volunteers carry out research on artefacts and specimens and their supporting information. This helps us to develop the services we offer and to make collections more accessible to users.
If you wish to arrange an appointment to view part of our collection, our library of books and journals or consult one of our databases please contact the appropriate member of staff or the Museum Service Office.
