http://www.hull.ac.uk/lib/archives/quaker/
The Yorkshire Quaker Heritage Projects
aims to increase access to and awareness of collections of Quaker
material relating to Yorkshire. The project is currently in progress
and aims, on completion, to have created an online database which
will provide descriptions of Yorkshire Quaker collections and their
locations. The projects is also working on the development of a
name index database. A research guide is also being developed.
The site currently provides a list of Yorkshire
Quaker collections and an alphabetical list of links to Quaker collection
information held on ARCHON from the Historical Manuscripts Commission.
The web site provides some background information on the project
and on Quakerism in general. Other features of the site include
a news and events section, a list of recently completed research
and research in progress relating to Yorkshire Quakerism, and a
list of briefly annotated links to other Quaker sites. The site
also maintains a list of research on Yorkshire Quakerism that is
currently in progress or has been recently completed.
