Welcome to the Open Doors website. The purpose of this website is to offer support, information and inspiration for museum, library and archive staff and Skills for Life practitioners.

This website describes the ways in which museums, libraries and archives can work with Skills for Life learners and adult education providers, and the benefits that this type of partnership working can bring.

You will find case studies, resources and a chance to get involved in the Open Doors network - a forum for museum, library and archive staff and Skills for Life professionals to meet and share best practice.
