Our Society library is housed at Sheffield Archives on Shoreham Street not far from the railway and coach stations. There are over 400 items in the collection which includes resources on microfiche and microfilm as well as printed matter such as books, booklets and typescripts. The contents are reviewed, updated and added to from time to time.
Material covers a wide range of topics from local histories and research guides to transcriptions of original records. Our library is open to anyone to use for reference, but it is not possible to borrow or remove items from Archives. If you are wanting to consult material on microfiche or films it is advisable to book a reader in advance. If you are visiting Archives for the first time you will need to take two forms of ID including one with your current address (such as a recent bill) in order to register.
The information in the list below is deliberately kept to a minimum in order not to overload the table. We use some common abbreviations:
- BT is Bishop’s Transcript;
- FHS is Family History Society;
- MI is monumental inscription;
- SOG is the Society of Genealogists;
- TNA is the National Archives (formerly the PRO: Public Record Office).
You can use the search facility to look for items of interest by title, author or subject. Using a key word to search the columns will pull up anything that has that word anywhere in the title or subject.
