BBC Written Archives Centre

BBC Written Archives Centre

The BBC Written Archives Centre is situated in Caversham, Berkshire, a suburb of Reading in England. The Centre holds the written records of the British Broadcasting Corporation, dating from 1922 to the present day. The current guidelines restrict access to pre-1980 production files, although some later documents (such as scripts and Programme as Broadcast records) may be released. It is open to writers and academic researchers in higher education by appointment only. The Centre has also contributed documents for many major documentaries on radio and television.
