Archive CD Books

Archive CD Books: "The Archive CD Books Project exists to make reproductions of old books, documents and maps available on CD to genealogists and historians, and to co-operate with libraries, museums and record offices in providing money to renovate old books in their collection, and to donate books to their collections, where they will be preserved for future generations.

The project began in March 2000, and has now developed world-wide, with each country scanning and producing its own books on CD.

Each of the various Archive CD Books sites throughout the world can supply most of the internationally made CDs, so that you can order locally from within your own country, and each country's web site has more specific information about the old books, records and documents that it produces."

We're really excited about a recent agreement that means in the coming months we'll be adding 1,000 different record collections from Archive CD Books to Ancestry.co.uk. These records will be available on site to members and Pay-Per-Viewers.

With the retirement of its founder, Rod Neep, Archive CD Books - a digital collection of city directories, rare books, military records, parish records and much more - will have a new home on Ancestry.co.uk. We're incredibly privileged to be able to carry on Rod's work.
