Understood, thanks anyway!

But to be clear, I wasn't asking you to decipher anything; just like [personal profile] luzula in Copenhagen, all I would expect anyone to do for me in an archive is identify the relevant pages by date and scan or photograph them. Easier and faster for you, much more valuable to me.

I'll see if I can find someone who has time (I'm kicking myself, because my dissertation advisor was in London last month, and I've been thinking about trying to get those Norris papers copied either by going to London myself or asking someone else to do it for *years*, and I just didn't think of it when she and I were emailing a month ago).

Now I could claim to do research on Peter Keith

You certainly could! I understand you need a reader's card with ID and proof of address, but the claim to be doing valid research should be the easy part. I don't think there's anyone, Kloosterhuis included, who's ever done more Peter Keith research than you, me, and [personal profile] felis! :D I mean, *I* certainly didn't read 6 volumes of Nicolai and find the Hertefeld-sourced account of the escape from Wesel. That was you, O Royal Reader!
