If you have used the Kent History and Library Centre for family history or any research either in the Community History area or the searchroom and think it could be improved you might like to know about the Kent History Centre Archive User Group. This was recently set up to improve the experience of archive users/family historians/genealogists at the KHLC, Maidstone.
Another issue that we hope to highlight is that digital images of many of the Kent archive records are listed on FamilySearch; however the images can only be viewed by members of the LDS, at a FamilyHistory Centre or at the KHLC using Kent History Source. This is not providing good access to a key resource. For sometime the Kent County Council website has said that Kent History Source will eventually be available in all Kent libraries- the more the people of Kent there are who say they would want the images available in their local library the sooner it might happen.
