Overview

 

Founded in 1788, the Linnean Society is one of London's oldest learned institutions. Among other collections, the Society's Library preserves the manuscripts, books and correspondence of Carl Linnaeus, the father of modern plant and animal classification. Linnaeus's library gives fascinating insight into his life and work.
