SPR member Dr Andreas Sommer has written about a proposal to compile a bibliographical guide focusing on the SPR's archive at Cambridge. This would have consisted
'of annotated entries on about 350 selected titles of books, pamphlets and periodicals from the roughly 3,000 volumes in the SPR library, and cross-links to manuscripts in the SPR archives, Wren Library, and other collections.
'Building on my own research in these and related archives for the past 10 years, I wanted to roughly focus on holdings from the nineteenth century to around the death of the mathematician and Principal of Newnham College, Eleanor M. Sidgwick (1845-1936), who was one of the early members and leading representatives of the SPR. And while my previous research has been focused on the human sciences, I proposed to use the guide to build further bridges to various disciplines including medicine, anthropology, biology, and the physical sciences.'
