What is Lloyd’s List and where can I view it?
Lloyd’s List is a newspaper which reports shipping casualties, movements, maritime news and commercial information. The earliest surviving edition is from 1741 and copies can be viewed on microfilm at the Guildhall Library. Please see Infosheet no.3 for further details. A good research guide to Lloyd’s List can be found on the National Maritime Museum’s web site, where they also hold a good collection of the publication.
