Over the summer, LJMU Special Collections & Archives have updated our CalmView catalogue to include collection-level descriptions for nearly all of our collections, including uncatalogued collections, to promote and improve the visibility of collections which researchers may not have previously known to search and request material from.

You can browse all 63 of these collections A-Z here.

Most of these collection-level descriptions now also include a box list if the rest of the collection is uncatalogued. You can download this box list by clicking on the PDF icon in the ‘Multimedia’ field of the collection-level description. If there isn’t a box list attached, there will be a statement in the ‘Access Conditions’ field explaining why.
