Archives Hub
https://archiveshub.jisc.ac.uk/
The Archives Hub brings together descriptions of thousands of the UK’s archive collections. Representing over 390 institutions across the country, the Archives Hub is an effective way to discover unique and often little-known sources to support your research. New descriptions are added every week, often representing collections being made available for the first time.
The Hub represents a huge diversity of content, from the archives of industries, institutions and researchers to the letters and manuscripts of writers and poets.
