National Library of Scotland material on Internet Archive

For some time the National Library of Scotland (www.nls.uk) has been digitising material in partnership with the Internet Archive (www.archive.org), most notably the Post Office directories project. What I had not twigged was just how much additional material the library has placed online through the partnership.

The library has a dedicated page on the site at http://archive.org/details/nationallibraryofscotland. On this you will find the following collections, including Harts Army Lists, RAF lists, trade directories and more:

Harts Army List
201 Harts Army List items
