Batley Community Archive

Batley, West Yorkshire

By Geoffrey Clout

This archive used to publish its collection on the Commanet website. The Commanet website is no longer online, because Commanet went into liquidation in 2009. If anyone can provide further details about how to access this collection, please contact elaine@communityarchives.org.uk.

The Batley archive was the first that was made using the Comma desktop software, the first image was entered just over 10 years ago.

We have collected pictures, sound recordings, videos and super 8 films.

The archiving group still meets every week in Batley library.

This archive is part of Commanet: the community archive network .

Commanet is a registered charity that helps communities to set up and develop local archives using specially designed Commanet software.
