Access for all
Some of the Blairs College Library of Aberdeen is at present on loan to the National Library of Scotland, where it is easily accessible to scholars, with the National Museum of Scotland, the Scottish National Portrait Gallery and 10 Drummond Place all in easy walking distance.
The best solution would be to transfer its collection of pictures to the National Portrait Gallery of Scotland, and the Jacobite memorabilia and the collection of Church precious vessels and rare old vestments to the National Museum of Scotland, where the public could have easy access.
