How do I book an appointment at the Richard Burton Archives?
Answer
Our reading room opening hours are as follows:
Tuesday 9.15am – 4.15pm
Wednesday 9.15am – 4.15pm
Thursday 9.15am – 4.15pm
All visits to the Archives are by prior appointment - please contact us at Library@swansea.ac.uk or 01792 606400. We ask that readers provide us with details of the materials they wish to consult at least three working days prior to visiting. The Archives' office is open Monday to Friday for enquiries.
We participate in the Archives Card reader's ticket scheme and if you do not already hold one you will need to apply. We recommend that you apply online in advance of your visit at www.archivescard.com and then bring two forms of ID in to receive your card. The Archives Card is free of charge and valid for 5 years.
