a birthday gift from HM

[winterbadger]

In true hobbit fashion, HM the Queen is offering the rest of the world a present on her birthday.

Queen Victoria's journals are available in full and online.

from the site's "about" page

For a limited time, this online collection is being made available for free to users around the world.

From July 2012 onwards it will remain freely available in perpetuity to all users within the United Kingdom as well as some specific libraries elsewhere.

Access to material in the Royal Archives, including Queen Victoria's Journals, is normally granted only to those undertaking academic research, on written application to the Senior Archivist.
