They don't seem to be indexed, at least none of the ones I have looked at so far are; you have to browse through them. Also I'm sure there must be some more from the second half of the alphabet but I can't see how to get a list!

Worth looking at the last pages of the book to see if there's an index - there is in the one I'm looking at:)

Loads more have been added - again, so many that they don't all fit in the "Recently added or updated" list:

I'll see if I can find a way of listing them all.

These are all the entries listed as "New/Updated" in the Family & Local History Records section of ancestry. I think it includes the books which were added in September as well as today's. I haven't put links in as it would take forever to do them, but you can find any of these by searching for the title in the Card Catalogue:
Ancestry Card Catalogue (http://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/rectype/alldblist.aspx)
Also don't forget there are loads of other books on ancestry which you may not have noticed.

They've now added lots of new Maps and Atlases. http://www.ancestry.co.uk/cs/reccol/default
They all look very interesting. I've had a look at the 1917 London Atlas and each map takes quite a while to load but worth the wait!

Don't get too excited about the parish register books, Julie, because the ones that I've looked at so far only seem to have a very few parishes each.

I wondered about the Cornish Register and also the book on Bampton. I have ancestors from Bampton in Somerset, but I believe there is also a Bampton in Oxford, or was it a history of a family called Bampton? :D

It's about Bampton in Oxfordshire, Julie.
