Of the titles examined as a sample, most were freely available elsewhere, (and in fact may be the same digital files), see the Fibiwiki pages [[Directories online]], [[Newspapers and journals online]] and [[Indian Army List online]], but one volume not seen elsewhere is ''Times Of India Bombay Directory, 1936''. Additionally, it is necessary to use the search, (or browse) to find the exact years of publication available. These publications are '''not''' currently searchable by name. The findmypast viewer for this database is slow, and it would be quicker to view a volume elsewhere.
**"Britain, Royal and Imperial Calendars 1767-1973"<ref>[https://searchwww.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2114&awinaffid=201071&clickref=&p=%5B%5Bhttps%253A%252F%252Fsearch.findmypast.co.uk/search%252Fsearch-world-Records/britain%252Fbritain-royal-and-imperial-calendars-1767-1973 %5D%5D Britain, Royal and Imperial Calendars 1767-1973] findmypast.</ref> introduced 2020/01/31. "The Imperial Calendars provide a valuable resource for tracing the whereabouts and careers of persons employed in various posts in the public sphere from the 1800s to 1973". The early calendars include persons serving in the East India Company and it seems likely there would also be later references to persons in India.
