About our digitised books...

Some of the collections we hold cannot be exhibited for reasons of practicablility, either because they are too fragile or we simply do not have enough space available. Digitisation allows us to make some of these accessible with viewing at the museum on TV screens and in some cases via the Internet. The Museum is undertaking a programme of digitisation as funds and grants become available.
