Library Collection

The GWSFHS Library is our most valued resource. We have approximately 4,000 items available for members to consult: books, journals, maps, old registers, and family trees submitted by members. The focus of the collection is Glasgow and the west of Scotland but we also cover other places relevant to Scottish genealogy. There are books on Ireland, military history, DNA and if you are a beginner to family history there are books to get you started.

If you are looking for a specific book or want to know what we have on a subject or place then search the catalogue using the panel to the left.
