→10% of Collection now at Larkhill
Firepower produced a guide for family history researchers called "Is There A Gunner In Your Family Tree?" The sixteen page guide outlined how the Museum's extensive archives could help researchers. It also detailed the other main UK sources and archives to explore when researching army service.
====10% of Collection Library and Archive now at Larkhill====Some 10% of the RA Museum’s Library and Archive has been settled in temporary accommodation at Larkhill Army Base, about 10 miles (16 km) north of Salisbury, Wiltshire, England. Public access is expected soon and will only be granted to the public on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Booking up to a month in advance is advised because the archive is now on an Army base and passes for cars and people need to be generated. There will be a daily access fee, and a daily fee for photography.<ref>
