ALL 60 volumes of a newly-published national biography collection are now available at four Worcestershire libraries - including Redditch.
The county council's library service has bought four complete copies of the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, each containing 50,000 specially written biographies of remarkable British people.
The collection has taken 12 years to update since its last publication and covers individuals from the fourth century BC to 2000.
Ten thousand people have contributed to the 60 million-word resource.
