We’ve recently added a new layer of LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) mapping to our website relating to parts of Scotland. This highly detailed representation of terrain allows many archaeological sites (such as hillforts, Roman camps, deserted villages, or cultivation terraces) to be seen in more clarity than on satellite imagery or maps.

The oldest book on its shelves dates from the late 1500s. This incredible space is found in the low hall of the old castle, protected by nine-foot-thick walls and watched over by a striking oil painting of the Archangel G

This is Scotland's oldest free lending library, and it's a very, very special place. You'll find Innerpeffray Library nestled in the Perthshire countryside near Crieff and it's been a book lovers paradise for almost 350 years! In 1680, Lord David Drummond realised he had lots of books while most people had none, so he placed his collection in a loft of the old chapel for locals to read. Around 60 years later, a dedicated library was built next door. It's still in use today, housing thousands of

Rare Books curator, Robert Betteridge talks about our collection of Incunabula, brought out as part of our Learning at Work Week. An incunable is any book published before 1501. The word comes from the Latin 'in cunae' which means 'in the cradle', representing the birth of printing. We hold over 600 15th century books here at the National Library, including a copy of the Gutenberg Bible. Robert's favourite incunable - as shown in the video - is a 15th century Parisian book of hours, printed on v
