Celebrating Sherlock Holmes Day with GoWYLD

May 20, 2022

Book cover of the Hound of the BaskervillesSunday, May 22, is Sherlock Holmes Day, in honor of the birthday of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. In honor of this event, we are highlighting a resource in GoWYLD.net where you can find and read some of the classic stories by Doyle.

A search in Literature Online (LION) for Arthur Conan Doyle will result in biographical information, literary criticism, and full e-books for titles such as The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, A Study in Scarlet, and The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. These can be found under the Primary Text section of the results page.
