Darwin Online

Darwin Online is like the ultimate Darwin hub—it's huge! It's packed with stuff about Darwin, way more than you'd find anywhere else. We're talking about 300,000 pages of searchable text, 230,000 images of pages, 119,500 manuscript scans, 6,000 PDFs, and 18,000 illustrations from books. Plus, you can find Darwin's writings in 29 different languages. They've also got a massive bibliography with 5,500 records and a super detailed catalogue of Darwin's manuscripts, covering 80 different places including institutions and private collections.

And get this, a ton of Darwin's writings have been edited and annotated here for the first time! There are over 10,000 new editorial notes and loads of new introductions. They've even reconstructed the complete libraries from Darwin's Beagle voyage and his personal stash at Down House.

This website is like a treasure trove of Darwin's personal stuff—around 20,000 items! And guess what? They've already transcribed over 9,000 manuscripts. Big shoutout to Cambridge University Library for letting us peek into Darwin's world like never before!
