University of Edinburgh Collections

The archives and printed collections of the Roslin Institute were acquired by Edinburgh University Library Special Collections in 2009, following the Institute's merge with the University's College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine. The collections comprise: the archival records of the Institute and predecessor bodies (including the Animal Breeding Research Organisation); a large collection of bound offprints from the Institute and predecessor bodies, as well as from F.A.E. Crew; rare books from the Institute's library, and a collection of nearly 3,500 late 19th/early 20th century glass plate slides. These collections are currently being catalogued with funding from the Wellcome Trust, who have also funded the digitisation of the glass slide collection. Catalogues are searchable online on the CRC's Archives and Manuscripts pages.
