During the interview I was able to photograph the inside of the new rooms and to get a guided tour of what is going to be an absolutely amazing hub for Scottish based researchers. Particularly heartening was to see the way that diasabled visitors will be able to gain much better access to the centre. New records that will be accessible include the Scottish Public Register of Arms which has been digitised, and others to follow later in the year. The set up will be different, as many records such as the wills that previously had to be consulted in the NAS will now be accessible from the same terminal as the BDM and OPR events; DIGROS is going, in favour of a new system, which will also allow some access to some external sites that users may have accounts with (for example Find My Past), and many other wonderful developments.
Due to the forum rules, I can't state which magazine the piece is in - but there are only six on sale, and it is stated on the cover! lol
