Calendars are chronological lists of documents or manuscripts. They are sometimes annotated and may excerpt large sections of material, or even include entire texts of some items. Some of them can be used as indexes to the microfilmed collections of state papers (see "State Papers" tab of this guide). The transcribed text can assist in deciphering the handwritten papers in the film.  When the Library does not have film of the complete manuscripts the calendars are often full enough to serve as good substitutes. Usually each volume contains an index.

Medieval and Early Modern Sources Online (MEMSO)  

This database contains the full text of various British and Scottish Calendars (of Papers, Letters, Patent Rolls), Accounts, Acts, Histories, and Registers. It's an ongoing project; many titles are partially complete online and others have yet to appear.
Full text searching of keywords and phrases is supported and enhances access to the material.
