Marine collection

The Lloyd's Marine Collection was deposited at the Guildhall Library in 1979. It contains the historical printed and manuscript records formerly held by the Lloyd's of London Library and is concerned primarily with shipping movements and casualties rather than personnel. A detailed guide to the Lloyd's Marine Collection is held at the library.

Resources within the Collection include:

  • Lloyd's Register of British and Foreign Shipping
  • Lloyd's Register of Yachts
  • Lloyd's List
  • Lloyd's Shipping Index
  • Lloyd's Weekly Casualty Reports
  • Lloyd's Register Wreck Returns
  • Lloyd's War Losses, First and Second World Wars
  • Lloyd's Loss and Casualty Books
  • Lloyd's Captains' Register
