Record - the Roger and Margaret Long Collection

This selection represents a tiny fraction of the 28,000 colour transparancies in the original collection. The images were produced between the late 1960s and early 2000s and cover the subjects of entomology, ornithology and botany, though items of social history interest appear between species, giving a personal touch to a scientific collection.

The slides are hand numbered with hand written indexes, indentifying specimens, subjects and dates. The SJPA is currently digitising the entire collection and is looking for interested members of the public to help with the transcribing and cataloguing of the indexes from home.
