Greetings,

 

For the last several years, The Library of Virginia (LVA) has been
expanding its collection of county and city records on microfilm through
an ambitious microfilm duplication project. 

 

This ongoing project seeks to provide access to additional locality
records dated prior to 1900 and identified as having high-research
value. These new reels are being duplicated from microfilm housed and
preserved in the Library's security microfilm vault and are made
available to the public in the LVA reading room and through its
interlibrary loan program. The project is being completed in rough
alphabetical order starting with the counties and then followed by the
cities. 

 

At this time, we are pleased to announce the latest addition of 8 reels
(reels 56-63) of Pulaski County microfilm to the Library's reading room
and interlibrary loan film collection. The new reels contain records
from the following major categories of local records: Business Records,
Circuit Court Records, Land Records, School Records and Township
Records. 

 

Please see the Library's Guide to Virginia County and City Records on
Microfilm http://www.lva.lib.va.us/whatwehave/local/local_rec/index.htm
for a full listing of the Library's growing microfilm holdings. We will
make further announcements as microfilm from other localities is added
to the collection.
