The
major part of the collections is housed within the Shropshire
Museums Resource Centre in Ludlow, co-located with the public
library.
There is an ongoing need for conservation of the collections to
ensure they are fit for purpose.
There are specialist facilities available within the Resource
Centre and this is an area where volunteers can be particularly
helpful, bringing skills for recognising the need for such work
or carrying it out under the supervision of professional
curators.
