Croome OmniScriptum Croome Collection Paperback

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Croome collection - the archive of the Earls of Coventry - came into public ownership in 2005 as part of the Acceptance in Lieu of Inheritance Tax Scheme, whereby the nation accepts valuable assets to set against tax liabilities. In 2006, after making a case to the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council for housing the collection, Worcestershire Record Office was identified as its new permanent home. A project is currently underway to catalogue the collection according to the International Standard for Archival Description, making it fully accessible to the public for the first time.
