He left his cards and slips to the British Museum, and a collection of 220 Scottish books to the Bodleian Library.[1] In 1954 he had presented 241 early Scottish books to the National Library of Scotland,[2] and other portions of his library are held by the John Rylands Library[3] and the University of Illinois.[4]
