Customer Notice Update 1 April 2016
Friday, 1 Apr 2016

Our ScotlandsPeople search rooms will reopen from 9.00 am on Monday 4 April. We apologise for any inconvenience the closure may have caused and thank you for your patience. Please call 0131 314 4300 for any seat booking enquiries.

I was following the story this weekend. The NRS website and ScotlandsPeople were not affected. The closure was for the on-site search rooms in Edinburgh.

(I don't want to say 'only' because it was undoubtedly very inconvenient for the on-site patrons).

It's always a good idea to call ahead before visiting any archive.
