The BGS Information Point provides an in-person enquiries service, working alongside the museum’s identification and advisory service. As part of the new geoscience discovery partnership with the NHM, BGS are also working on a targeted public engagement programme spanning several areas of museum work, including displays, educational events, resources and collections.

Geological maps and books are accessible through the BGS online shop or you can email the sales team (sales@bgs.ac.uk). Please note, these are no longer kept onsite at the museum; if you wish to use the workshop space or access the BGS collection stored at the NHM please email enquiries@BGS.ac.uk in advance of your visit to make an appointment. Maps, books or other reference material can be made available to view but please email in advance to ensure we can provide the materials requested.

You can access our reference material and digital data by emailing BGS enquiries (enquiries@bgs.ac.uk).

Please email BGS engagement (bgsengage@bgs.ac.uk) if you have any questions or feedback on this move.
