• Linnean Collection in Disa
• Linnean Collection in Alvin

A collection from the Linnean Foundation at Hammarby that consists of works that belonged to Linnaeus' own library. These books formed part of the collection that was at one stage sold by Linnaeus' widow to The Linnean Society in London. Some of the books, mainly about medicine, were returned to Sweden at the end of the 19th century on the grounds that they did not fit in subject-wise.
In the collection there are also books by or about Carl Linnaeus that have been donated or aquired to Linnaeus' summer residence Hammarby in the early 20th century.
