The Photographic Collections Network are running a series of events across the UK combining collection tours with talks aimed at anyone working with photo collections and archives in museums, libraries and archives.
This event is the first in this series of events aiming to create an informal space for conversation and networking, and an opportunity to learn about national and private collections with some new skills along the way.
This event includes a tour of the photo collection stores at National Science and Media Museum in Bradford, followed by a talk by Head Curator Geoff Belknap.
