1999

Appointment of Sarah Lewery, the Archives Centre’s second conservator (1999-present)

In a recent episode of our podcast, our Senior Conservator, Sarah Lewery, reflects on how she has been preserving the collections for more than 20 years. Sarah talks about how she started her career in conservation, what are the challenges of today, how she handled things during the Covid-period and what the best part of her job is.

And you can also watch Sarah talk about one of her earliest conservation challenges, which was conserving a biophysicist’s model.
