Plymouth & West Devon Record Office (PWDRO) – the ongoing saga
“The boss of Plymouth's museum has snubbed historians and archivists representing about 40 organisations from Plymouth and the rest of the South West, writes Political Reporter Keith Rossiter.” So begins the article in The Herald reporting on the meeting held on 27 November to discuss the threat to Plymouth's ancient archives, which are housed in a sub-standard temporary building on an industrial estate. The historians vowed to launch a national campaign to shame the council after Nicola Moyle, curator of the City Museum and Art Gallery, failed to turn up at the meeting in the Spurgeon Hall, Mutley Plain. The following link will take you to the full article where you can also leave comments. http://www.thisisplymouth.co.uk/news/Council-challenged-archives/article-1561617-detail/article.html
