This is great, thank you. However, there seems to be a problem. I am unable to access these books because I believe that you can only access these books if you are in Norway. Unfortunately, I'm in the United States.

Hi Lawrence ~

Books at the Norwegian National Library come in several categories. Some are electronically available to all -- and downloadable -- while others are available only to those that have have Norwegian Internet Service Provider Addresses.

However, the physical books are available anywhere in the US through local libraries via Inter-Library Loan (ILL) or Outer Library Loan (OLL).

If your local library is not able to find a particular bygdebok through ILL or OLL, email me through the NHOH lag web page and I will be glad to send back information on loaning libraries which I am aware of as having the specific book.

Best wishes,

PS ~ Our lag also brings these books to our annual stevne. We have many in our own collection and borrow many from our local university library, which also loans them through ILL/OLL
