Salisbury Library, Cardiff: Welsh research collection to Celtic Internet database

Abstract

Reports on the first, large Celtic studies database, available over the Internet, which is being produced at the Salisbury Library, in the University of Wales, Cardiff. The history of the Salisbury Library shows it to be a first rate university research collection, and a conspectus assessment of its collections indicates that it has very strong research collections in its core fields of Welsh language, literature, history, and religion, and a very good Celtic studies collection. A financial grant has enabled the whole collection to be recatalogued onto the Libertas online catalogue database. Once completed, the online catalogue will offer scholars of Welsh and Celtic studies worldwide access for the first time, via the Internet, to a massive collection of rare, historical, and current sources of information, and enable subject access to such information for the first time.
