National Library of Wales, Aberystwyth - online data

Records at the Steelworks Museum at The Works, Ebbw Vale


The British Library and National Library of Wales have preserved every book they could lay their hands on for viewing and research by future generations.

This weekend they announced that they plan to now preserve online websites, blogs and even tweets. This means that, hopefully, this blog on the South Wales Valleys, will be preserved in perpetuity fo future generations to view and enjoy. (Rather a daunting thought.)  All the more reason for me to make it relevant and interesting.

Unfortunately there are no plans at present to make this collection available online.  Interested parties would have to visit one of their libraries.

Thank you National Library.
