Dear colleagues
I’m pleased to let you know that descriptive catalogues of archives held by the RHS Lindley Libraries are being made available on-line via the Archives Hub:
http://archiveshub.ac.uk/contributors/royalhorticulturalsociety.html
The first collection to be made available is the papers of William Robinson which include letters from Charles Darwin, John Ruskin, Joseph Hooker, Edward Burne-Jones and many other prominent individuals. Over the next few months new catalogues will be made available in the same way. The Lindley Library is open to all, and readers can consult material by appointment.
We are very grateful to the Archives Hub and the fantastic staff there for their help in making this happen.
Best wishes
Liz Taylor
