We have added eight new datasets to our collection on Labs, to give web developers a taste of the incredible range of data available within The National Archives and encourage them to experiment with new applications, online tools and ways of visualising data.

The datasets include:

• postal and web addresses for around 2,400 UK record repositories listed in the National Register of Archives (NRA)
• a list of approximately 700 archives from around the world that hold collections noted under the indexes of the NRA
• a hospital records database, which provides information on the existence, location and administration of records of UK hospitals as recorded by the Wellcome Library
• catalogue details of 'ancient correspondence' between medieval officials covering the 12th to the 16th centuries
• details of official correspondence ('bulls') from the Pope between the 1130s and England's break with Rome 400 years later
• details of Equity cases from the court of Chancery
• detailed descriptions of a wide range of correspondence between central government and selected regional Victorian Poor Law Unions across England and Wales, produced as part of our Living the Poor Life project.

And don't forget to let us know what you build - either through the comments section of Labs or on Twitter.
