Palaeography courses

Designed for beginners and those with some experience, these four courses build up a fundamental understanding of palaeography.  Each course is stand-alone, but the four will also work together to reinforce existing and new knowledge, together with an understanding of the most common documents used in local and family history.

 Palaeography level 3 - Intermediate palaeography [3rd session of 4; or stand-alone]

This course offers extra practice and brushing up skills.  We will also look at ways to understand Latin documents when you don’t have any Latin.

Dr. Caroline Adams has a professional archives qualification and is a registered member of the Archives and Records Association.  Until 2014 she   was Senior Archivist at West Sussex Record Office, and is now a freelance archivist, palaeographer and historian.

Our online tutorials provide guidance on a broad range of topics. They are open to everyone.

In order to be able to join the tutorial you will need access to ZOOM. On the day of the Tutorial you will be sent a unique ID and password.

Please allow for two hours for the session, including joining and discussions. The talk will last approximately an hour.

The numbers are limited. If the bookings are full, please contact the registrar@ihgs.ac.uk as new dates will be added.
