Workshops will look at what records people can access, such as maps, plans and family, estate and hospital records.
Visitors can also get help deciphering difficult handwriting and old deeds.
On Wednesday, May 18, a session on maps and plans will be held.
Family and estate records will be looked at on Wednesday, June 15, and on Wednesday, July 20, non-conformist records – documents which relate to those who did not follow the Anglican religion – will be explored.

"There are so many important records held at Nottinghamshire Archives."
All sessions cost £3.50 and must be pre-booked by calling 0115 958 1634.
