Get hands-on with the new Archive Catalogue

Important information for visitors

Until summer 2025, there is a new visitor route at the National Maritime Museum while we carry out essential improvements to the Museum's roof. Most galleries will still be open as normal, and special exhibitions are currently free for all visitors. However, the Great Map and AHOY! will be closed for the duration of the works.

If you saw Hannah's last post about our new Archive Catalogue you'll remember that she mentioned that we would be holding some short introductory sessions on how to use it. We've now set some initial dates for these, which are:

Tuesday 23 September, 3pm
Thursday 25 September, 11am

We'll be covering topics like keyword searching for people and vessels, finding and browsing through a collection, and how to order documents in advance of a visit.

The sessions will be held in the E-Library and will last around 20 minutes. No booking is required, but if you would like to register your interest please contact us. We'll also be holding further sessions in October after our two closed weeks.
