Thank you for your interest in the The Arthur Conan Doyle Collection, Richard Lancelyn Green Bequest.
Unfortunately we are currently still progressing the enormous task of cataloguing the collection so cannot undertake individual reasearch requests at the present time.
However a selection of the books from the collection, numbering approximately 900 volumes, have been recently made available for reference use in the Local Studies section of the Central Library in Portsmouth. No appointment is necessary. For more information click here: www.portsmouth.gov.uk/learning
In addition the exhibition 'A Study in Sherlock: Uncovering the Arthur Conan Doyle Collection' is currently running at the City Museum. This highlights many of the rare and extraordinary items from the Lancelyn Green Bequest. For more information click here: www.portsmouthmuseums.co.uk
