The department serves as the statewide repository for microfilmed county records from the earliest date for all 120 counties. Some counties, without sufficient space, store either their original early or modern records here as well. Consequently research using original records for many counties can be conducted entirely at this repository. Correspondence with the department and the appropriate counties is recommended to clarify specific holdings.

A valuable research tool is the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives’ ''The Guide to Kentucky Archival and Manuscript Repositories'' (Frankfort, Ky.: Public Records Division, 1986). This compilation, available online, is based on data gathered by the Kentucky Guide Project. It contains an overview of 285 Kentucky repositories and their holdings.

For a detailed description of some holdings in the Kentucky Historical Society Library, consult Joan E. Brookes-Smith, ''Kentucky Historical Society Microfilm Catalog'', vols. 3–4 (Frankfort, Ky.: Kentucky Historical Society, 1981) or see descriptions online.

An older and outdated finding aid for names and addresses of over 300 Kentucky genealogical and historical societies is the Kentucky Historical Society’s ''Directory of Historical Organizations and Speakers Bureau'' (Frankfort, Ky.: Historical Confederation of Kentucky and Kentucky Historical Society, 1988). A reprinted edition is expected.
