at Camlann village require research in a wide range of topics, allowing us
to reasonably reproduce the buildings, clothing, food, tools, and furnishings that are the fabric of medieval daily
life. Our library has been collected over a 20 year period, and is
added to regularly. New additions are listed in our members'
quarterly newsletter. Books here
include secondary sources, reproductions of primary sources, and selected
general works, but with a preference for books which go into detail on
specific subjects. Camlann donors
are
welcome to visit, by appointment, and spend time here reading and doing
research.
