Have you visited... the Glasgow Women's Library?

In April my next book, Tracing Your Scottish Family History on the Internet, will be published. To pave the way, every week until publication I will flag up a key site that you may not be aware of if you are new to genealogy, or which you may have overlooked if researching for a while, which might just help with your Scottish research!

This week, the Glasgow Women's Library.

The Glasgow Women’s Library (https://womenslibrary.org.uk) is a national library, archive and museum dedicated to celebrating the lives, histories and achievements of women, with collections as diverse as Suffragette memorabilia and 1930s dressmaking patterns to Scottish Women’s Liberation newsletters from the 1970s. The organisation’s website hosts a variety of resources, including a searchable online catalogue for the holdings of its lending library, and its ‘LGBTQ Collections Online Resource’ hosting digitised materials from its Lesbian Archive and LGBTQ collections.

Have fun!
