Thanks to Jane Harris for the following mixed bag of news for those seeking to gain access to the ScotlandsPeople system at the Highland Archive and Registration Centre (https://www.highlifehighland.com/highland-archive-centre/) in Inverness.
From April 4th its opening hours will extend to Tuesdays-Thursdays, from 10-4.30pm (an addition of a day from the current two day provision). On the ohter hand, the access price is to be raised to £20 per day, as opposed to £15 in all other centres providing access on the same basis as the ScotlandsPeople Centre in Edinburgh.
(The facility's website at https://www.highlifehighland.com/archives-service/archives/family-history-centre/ has yet to be updated).
There's sadly no update on the ScotlandsPeople situation in Kilmarnock as of yet.
