PRONI introduces a Bulk Ordering Service

  • The request must be made in writing to the Head of Public Services at least three weeks in advance of your proposed visit. Visit date(s) must be agreed in advance.

  • The documents or files requested must be from the same collection (for example, D623 Abercorn Papers, VAL Valuation Records).

  • The documents or files requested must be clearly identified and open for public consultation.

  • A minimum of 20 documents and a maximum of 150 documents can be requested from a consecutive run; a minimum of 20 documents and a maximum of 50 documents can be requested from a non-consecutive run.
