Attention, BBC Sherlock fans! Our Meta Library is happening.

Our fandom is an amazingly creative place: We gif, we draw, we write – and we analyse. But unfortunately, meta we write can be lost easily since there is no central archive. There are masterlists, sure, yet how often have you read a post that starts with “I don’t know if anyone’s already written about this”?

We intend to fix that.

Our plan is to create a centralised, inclusive, safe, easy-to-browse archive for all meta created on BBC’s Sherlock: the SHERLOCK META LIBRARY. It will be a place for both ‘veterans’ of meta and complete newcomers - as well as all those in between.

The TEAM behind this endeavour is a diverse group of Sherlockians currently working on building the site, developing a tagging strategy, a marketing plan, a budget, and much, much more. Our chief aim is TRANSPARENCY, which is why we created this ‘official’ Tumblr, and other social media accounts will follow. We will post updates frequently and get you all involved!

How you can help:

REBLOG and LIKE this post to raise awareness and signal boost this! It will also show the team that our work is not in vain.

Comment and add your thoughts! We aim for the Library to be created by the Sherlock fandom for the fandom and would really value your feedback.


Follow the official meta library tumblr. You can also track #sherlockmetalibrary :)

Thank you so much in advance, and stay tuned for updates on this exciting project!

Sincerely, your Meta Library Team =)

Exciting times ahead, so glad to be a part of it and see other folk’s talent and hard work! <3
