Accessions to Repositories

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  16 September 2015

Extract

The following digest of major accessions to repositories during 1995, relating to Roman Catholicism after the Reformation, has been supplied by Dr. A. P. Lewis, Curatorial Officer, The Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts. The Historical Manuscripts Commission seeks each year to collect information relating to manuscript accessions from over 250 repositories and record offices throughout the British Isles. This information is then published on the Internet via the Commission's website (http://www.hmc.gov.uk) and in a series of thematic digests which appear in a wide range of learned journals and newsheets. It is also added to the indexes to the National Register of Archives (NRA), which are available for public consultation in the Commission's search room at Quality House, Quality Court, Chancery Lane, London WC2A 1 HP, and via the Commission's website. The Commission will also answer limited and specific postal and e-mail enquiries. Readers of Recusant History should be aware that the manuscript collections noted in the following digest represent a very small part of the collected information available in the NRA.
