This change to service will commence on Thursday 12 September and will continue until the end of November 2024 when the effectiveness of late-night opening will be reviewed.
Minister Lyons said: “My Department recognises that not all our citizens can visit PRONI during the standard working week. This extended opening will greatly facilitate and widen access to our public records for everyone. Widening access to records is a core element underpinning PRONI’s 2024/25 campaign to celebrate inclusivity and diversity within the archives.”
