Course Summary: This course enhances Scottish genealogical research using published sources such as newspapers, business directories and other material, both online and in print. These printed resources can be a rich source of genealogical information, confirming relationships between individuals or by giving biographical information about someone’s life. They can also provide valuable background or contextual information about an individual or family. They can fill in gaps between census returns or provide a substitute in situations where census returns or civil registration records are not available. 

The course examines how to access information in newspapers and other published sources, including both freely available and subscription-based material. It also considers industry-specific publications and other printed works relating to particular occupations or geographic areas.

To purchase the print materials, the course must already be purchased or the order will be refunded. Scottish: Newspapers and Printed Sources print materials.

By the end of the course, students should have an understanding of Scottish printed sources and newspapers available, how they can be accessed, and which are most appropriate in particular research contexts.
