This collection consists of ''Blue Book''s from 21 British colonies across the Caribbean, sourced from the British Foreign & Commonwealth Office. The database "Colonial and Missionary Records" from "British Online Archives" is available in the [[British Library]] Reading Rooms, (where the description advises "NB: Reader Pass holders can also access this resource remotely via our Remote Resources service"), and it appears likely from the description that the Caribbean ''Blue Book''s module would be included in that database, but you would need to confirm. Also see comments under African publications above.
