Not so much sympathy these days for physical archives with so much 'footfall' moving online or expecting to find resources online. Archives are increasinly digitised where theres a will and a way to do that. However the significance of this is made via a link in the article Henry has posted;
"Regular users voiced their unhappiness about the plans. Charlton-based war historian Steve Hunnisett called it “appalling news”. “Sneaked out with little or no consultation. Loss of a very useful and much loved local facility.”
The Charlton Athletic Museum, based at The Valley, tweeted that the centre had been “invaluable source of advice and information to us when setting up and ever since”. The centre holds information relating to not just the Addicks’ early days, but the initial years of Arsenal FC when it played at grounds in Plumstead."
