Oakham Library houses numerous materials on Rutland and the surrounding area, including both reference and loan materials, and microfilm/fiche records including census returns and parish registers. There are also some old newspapers specific to Rutland on microfilm and in hard copy, and a selection of maps and newspaper cuttings. Books and pamphlets are available on individual villages and churches in Rutland, some towns and villages in Leicestershire, and there is a small amount of stock covering Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire.
There is a substantial amount of reserve stock not on view in the library (some of which is un-catalogued) including various works on Oakham School, Uppingham School, and Rutland & Northamptonshire Militia. There is also a small collection of general family history books shelved separately in the local studies area. | Format: | Books, pamphlets, newpapers, microfilms | Subjects: | Population censuses Militia records Local history Militia Census data Maps Genealogy | Source: | Cornucopia - Discovering UK Collections | FAX: | 01572 724906 | Telephone: | 01572 722918 | Identifier: | oai:www.cornucopia.org.uk:7324 | Format: | Books, pamphlets, newpapers, microfilms | Go to resource |
