What do you want to be published? Tell us now.

In 2008/9 we will be adding new titles from existing series, but also beginning major new projects. Suggest your additions to our catalogue now (add comment here, or contact us).

Here are some highlights of the coming twelve months:

  • Register of the Privy Council of Scotland, 1676-1691 (to finish complete series)
  • Calendar of Treasury Papers, 1556-1728
  • The Rolls Series: please tell us if you would like particular volumes. Featured in this years coverage will be Matthew Paris’ Chronica Majora, Roger Howden’s Chronica, the Tripartite Life of St Patrick, and Irish sources such as Historical Municipal Documents, Ireland.
  • New Project: The Historical Manuscripts Commission Reports and Calendars. A major new project to digitise this enormous and complex collection of material relating to manuscript sources in the UK. We will be publishing large sections of this collection – however we would like to enlist our user’s assistance in suggesting volumes that should be included in the first wave. A complete list of the titles which have been published by HMC since the mid nineteenth century can be found at http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/academic/pdf/bibliography.pdf
