CARN stands for County Archives Research Network.
This is a nationwide scheme which certain local authority archive facilities may opt in to. It provides a single membership card for all these facilities. Holders of a CARN membership card will be permitted to use the facilities at a participating archive without signing up and obtaining a new card for each one.
Joining
