SWRLS is looking for 4-5 member libraries to help formulate a Pilot Project in support of making libraries' 'hidden collections' more accessible to tell a wider range of stories.

SWRLS is planning to apply for funding to The National Lottery Heritage Fund's Dynamic Collections campaign to get our long-in-gestation project known as Hidden Treasures (formerly Hidden Collections) off the ground. We are looking for up to 5 libraries initially to form a pilot group to support an application which SWRLS will write towards a project lasting 24 months. The libraries will consult as a group to determine which is our preferred leading theme and what collection items we agree to put forward for funding, ensuring we meet the NLHF criteria which involve
Engagement Re-Interpretation
Collections management
If your library has an important collection you feel meets the criteria and would like to join the pilot discussion, please email Coordinator1@swrls.org.uk or message SWRLS via our membership Basecamp Communications Group.
