内容説明

The fifteen papers on the public records are concerned, firstly, with the history and development of the Public Record Office, including future development, selection, government record keeping, preservation, and the 30 year rule,and, secondly, with access to records by way of calendars and indexes including publication of records, information technology, nationwide finding aids and the Index Library. Two papers represent the interests of consumers of public records, while six papers on probate records offer some new approaches to wills, inventories and probate accounts.
