SCOTT POLAR RESEARCH INSTITUTE

One of the world's finest libraries and archives relating to both Scott and Shackleton is located at the Scott Polar Research Institute, Lensfield Road, Cambridge, where the award-winning Shackleton Library is housed.

The Shackleton Library was opened by Shackleton's granddaughter, the Hon. Alexandra Shackleton, President of the James Caird Society. The library provides both a fitting tribute to one of the Twentieth Century's greatest explorers and a valuable resource for all those interested in Antarctic research and exploration

On the SPRI's extensive website it is possible to find full details of the Library, Museum and Archives; and of the SPRI's extensive Antarctic (and also Arctic) Photo Collection (including photos by Hurley andf Ponting) which has an invaluable new full search facility.
