Robbins Library received a gift of Arthurian Short Stories from Larry Mendelsberg, a New Jersey chiropractor who loves the Arthurian legend. The gift of over 475 items consists of collections of all-Arthurian stories, collections with at least one Arthurian story, and periodicals with Arthurian content.

Larry OWNED (and now we do) virtually all of the items on the bibliography he provided to the Camelot Project:  http://www.lib.rochester.edu/camelot/acpbibs/lmbib.htm

The 253 volumes of the Rolls Series, containing a total of 99 works, were published in London between 1858 and 1911. While the main focus of this collection is the editing of medieval chronicles, it also includes a significant number of letters, treaties, charters, poems, and sagas.
