Outreach Consultant
Closing date: 23:00, Wednesday 5th November 2025
Lambeth Palace Library, founded in 1610, is the historic library and records office of the Archbishops of Canterbury. It is the principal repository for the archives of the Archbishops of Canterbury and the National Church Institutions. It is freely open for public use, serving as a research centre specialising in church history, and its archive, manuscript, and printed collections are wide-ranging. The collections contain material dating from the ninth century to the present day and encompass many formats, from medieval manuscripts and early printed books through to modern archives and digital records.
The Library’s vision is to collect, preserve and make accessible the memory of the Church of England, so that its history can be explored and enjoyed by all. Further details can be found on the Library’s website: www.lambethpalacelibrary.info.
While the Library has an extensive outreach programme including exhibitions and public talks that reach a variety of audiences, we wish to develop our outreach programme further. We recognise that our provision for children and young people could be strengthened, particularly in terms of support for education, and as we extend our outreach activity we would like to address this.
