The National Archives (UK) is launching the first-ever annual survey of the UK’s archive sector in partnership with National Records Scotland, the Scottish Council on Archives, Welsh Government, Archives and Records Council Wales and Public Record Office of Northern Ireland.

This annual survey will provide us with the standardised baseline data that we need to effectively advocate on behalf of archives to funders and stakeholders, locally, regionally and nationally. With your responses, we can also provide archives with data, enabling them to benchmark their performance against other services.
