Project: Learning Resource Development

Client name: Barts Health Archive

The archives and objects cared for by Barts Health are amongst the largest and most important hospital and healthcare collections in the UK, spanning over 2.5km of shelving and nine centuries of history.

In this project, as a team of students, you will use the collections to create a new learning resource: a research guide which will be published on the Barts Health Archives catalogue, and/or a display in our reading room. You will engage in primary source research, understand how to navigate the collections, and learn how to share research to a non-specialist audience.
