Testimonials
“The service provided by Jonathan is exceptional. Such rapid acquisition of quite intricate archival requests, at exceptionally low latency, is an enabling capacity for historians engaged in the study of UK and Commonwealth foreign relations and multilateralism.
The scalability, and ability to organize prioritised target lists, allows much more effective pursuit of themes and strands of debate. For projects which are cost or travel constrained in particular, it provides a unique avenue that is much closer to the situ survey and retrieval, as opposed to the more haphazard approach of securing copies guided only by the finding aid.
Even when many thousands of kilometres away, a triaging, reconnaissance pass at a sub-set of folders, and then prompt follow up on those most relevant on examination, becomes feasible, with extremely rapid, clear, and precise estimates on time and expenditure. “
Dr Roland Burke
“A great service for extremely good rates. I've used Jonathan's services to get copies of files at the National Archives. His photos were perfect quality and delivered in an easy and timely way. He has great communication and knows what he's doing. Will absolutely use him again if and when I need.”
Dr. Alessandro Antonello
“This is a fantastic service that was very useful to me as I sought to secure some materials from the British Library. It is very professional and efficient, and Jonathan is extremely collegial.”
Dr Aditya Balasubramanian
“This is a highly professional service from someone who really knows archives. Jonathan is great to work with, keeps to timelines, and supplies outstanding digital copies. How reassuring for the historian who can’t get there herself to know that an expert in archival research is on the job, someone who is methodical in following up all requests as well as going a few extra yards when and where necessary. It’s always exciting to see what Jonathan’s been able to find.”
