The day will start with an overview of the history of Lancashire Archives by Dr Alan Crosby, the Chair of the Federation and followed by three speakers in the morning who will each talk about using the archives for their research: namely : Dr Jack Southern from UCLAN, Dr Nicholas Radburn from Lancaster University  and Dr Jill Liddington from Leeds University.  

In the afternoon there will be three sessions which will include a tour of the archives, a talk on the Lancashire Printed Collection held in the archives,  and a chance to find out about the new LANCAT II online catalogue and how best to search for your items.
