What is planned to be a new digital library of historical records is now available online, the first topic they have made available is the 19th century Napier Commission report into Crofting

Quote
Our first entry is the 19th Century Napier Commission report into the life and times of Highland crofters and cottars, one of Scotland's most important historical records. Now for the first time, it is available from our online elibrary. Just click HERE to be taken to the documents.

Thanks for the great link to the Napier Commission report Myrrdin. Have just started to read the large files ... they contain a tremendous amount of evidence of daily life and include my ancestor's locale in Lewis. It's interesting to read the crofters' point of view for a change.
And thank you Lochaber College for sharing your work.
