I am researching Circuses in Wales, especially the area surrounding Swansea, does the National Library have anything in its collection?

The first place to search is the posters and photography collections that are held in the National Library. You may search the National Library's catalogue to do this: https://darganfod.llyfrgell.cymru/primo-explore/search?vid=44WHELF_NLW_NUI&lang=en_US You may wish to click the 'Keyword' tab and search the various collections we have under 'Search Collection' to confine your search. You may also use Newsplan Cymru to find holdings for relevant newspaper titles: http://www.newsplanwales.info/index.htm In addition to this there is a database which might be of interest relating to Swansea itself: http://www2.swansea.gov.uk/_info/cambrian/default.asp This is an index to the Cambrian Journal, and some references should appear when searching under 'circus'. |
