Brighton & Hove City Council are proposing to close the centre in order to save £62,000. the centre holds local directories, newpapers and much more of use to family & local historians.:xmas_no:
Parts could be housed temporarily in the city's Jubilee Library and then transfer to The Keep, a East Sussex county and city record office yet to be built jointly by the County & City counciles at Falmer (which is where Univ of Sussex is, work starts 2011).
I did some research for someone in Australia there recently, the staff are knowledgeable & friendly, all four jobs are to be axed. Sad days ahead.
