The tour is wheelchair accessible, but please note we do not have courtesy wheelchairs or walkers available at the Victorian Archives Centre so anyone requiring a wheelchair or walker will need to bring their own.
Online access
Our website was designed to meet accessibility standards. However, some of our catalogue pages and digitised records may be more difficult for some screen readers to interpret. If you have any trouble accessing information from our website or have a suggestion to improve access, please contact us.
