Please pass on to any local history librarians.
I am trying to ascertain how many libraries are likely to
stock microfiche or microfilm copies of 1901 CEBs once they
are available.
My own feeling is that given that the CEBs will be
available for a fee over the Internet very few libraries
will bother to stock the CEBs making there use for local
history research very difficult.
I would add that although the PRO have stated that special
provision for academics will be made, this does little for
local historians since most are amateur historians doing a
very good job without any external funding.
