It contains high quality reproductions of comparatively rare books, essential tools for research into local and genealogical history. Could be worth a look

	This site has improved enormously and become much easier to use in the last year. I would recommend reading up on using the advanced search facilities as they can make a big difference, especially if you are unsure of details or have a common name.
