The library offers a selection called Special Collections, which holds materials written by Bahamians, about Bahamian lifestyles and The Bahamas in general. Items from this collection must be used only within the library.
Information about all Bahamian materials held in our collections are included in the OPAC (include hyperlink). When reviewing your results in the OPAC there is a box to the right which allows you to filter your results to only materials in Special Collections.
