National Library of Wales

The National Library is a fantastic repository of Welsh history and culture.
Involvement in diverse projects, accessibility for everyone, either in
person or online and a modern world view make this library a national asset.

The National Library of Wales is the largest library in Wales and one of the
world?s great research libraries. Its collections include books, manuscripts,
archival documents and maps, as well as paintings, photographs, films,
videos and sound recordings.

The Library is recognised as the leading research centre for Welsh
and Celtic studies, and is popular with researchers of local and family
history. It maintains a varied programme of exhibitions throughout the
year and arranges lectures, film screenings and conferences in the
?Drwm?, the auditorium at the Library.
