New Official papers Reading Room open

The new Bodleian Libraries Official Papers Reading Room is now open in the Bodleian Law Library.

The Official Papers collection in the Bodleian Library consists of a comprehensive set of British parliamentary papers from 1801 to the present, as well as earlier records of the proceedings of parliament and non-parliamentary papers. Government papers of Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the republic of Ireland are also held. The publications of international organisations, notably the United Nations, GATT, WTO, OAS, ILO, ICAO, the Council of Europe and several other international bodies form the rest of this extensive collection. The Bodleian Law Library holds the official European Documentation Centre, as well as UK Statutes, Parliamentary Records (‘Hansard’) and UN material.

You can find more information about the Official papers collection on the Bodleian Libraries website. Online LibGuides to Official Papers related to specific subjects are also available.
