Cotswold Archaeology Launches a Free Online Library of Reports

  • DATE WRITTEN:
  • READING TIME: 1 minute

To mark our 25th birthday Cotswold Archaeology has launched a free on-line library of reports.

All of our out-of-print monographs are available for download from this website alongside typescript reports on archaeological fieldwork projects (the so-called grey literature). These can be accessed via a powerful tool which can undertake map-based and keyword searches.

Over 1,000 reports have already been uploaded and this number will rise to over 2,500 in the coming months. Making the results of our work widely and freely available is an important part of our charitable activities, and we hope that this will prove a valuable and popular resource.

The report library can be accessed here
