How to Access the Stationers’ Company Archive

While the Company's Vision 350 Hall Development project is under way, our Reading Room is temporarily closed. We hope to welcome you back to the Archive in early 2022, and will keep this page updated with further developments.  In the meantime, for remote access options (digital archive and microfilm), and information on useful web resources, please click here

Please contact archivist@stationers.org if you have any further questions.
