Sleuthing the Sleuth: Discussing The Sherlock Holmes Handbook

I recently watched a fascinating discussion about Sherlock Holmes on PBS called How Sherlock Changed the World.  One of the interesting revelations the special maintains is that as the original Sherlock stories were being written they were in fact SCIENCE FICTION in that Doyle posited doing things with science to investigate and solve crimes that […]

A Sherlock Holmes Themed Community Reading Event, a guest post by Anna Behm

My library is abuzz with all things Sherlock Holmes, but it has nothing (well, almost nothing) to do with the premiere of the third season of Sherlock. We just launched our first independent community reading event, Westmont Reads, and The Hound of the Baskervilles is our chosen book. And while it might be too soon […]

On Loving Two Different Sherlocks, a guest post by Rachelia

January 10, 2014 by Karen Jensen, MLS

I’m relatively new to the various Sherlock fandoms, having first watched series 1 – 3 of the BBC’s Sherlock around this time last year, and all of Elementary this fall. What I lack in history with these shows I like to think I make up in passion, haha! From what I’ve garnered from browsing Tumblr […]

On the BBC’s Sherlock: A Study in Character, a guest post by author Carrie Mesrobian

January 9, 2014 by Karen Jensen, MLS

Sherlock holds a sweet spot in my heart and not just I’m flooded with animated GIFs on my Tumblr feed of Sherlock and John kissing (I AM JOHN-LOCKED, etc.). And not just because it’s a brilliantly written and acted show. I love Sherlock because my daughter Matilda, age 10, also loves it. So it’s one […]

Sherlock Week: On Moriarty, a guest post by Jayla

January 9, 2014 by Karen Jensen, MLS

BBC I was hooked on Sherlock since day one. There is no other way to get around that fact. I will admit that I wasn’t a true fan of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories until after I watched the first season of BBC America’s Sherlock revamp. But I have come to appreciate them a lot […]

A Newbie’s View on Sherlock, from guest poster Maria Selke

January 8, 2014 by Karen Jensen, MLS

http://gravity3652.tumblr.com/ It was early January, and I started to watch Sherlock on Netflix to get me through my elliptical routine. I enjoyed it… but something intervened. (That something was a big blue box called the TARDIS. Six months and seven series later, I was more than an official Whovian. I was a fanatic fan.)  Still… […]

Sherlock and the Case of the Diversity Problem (and why representation matters)

January 8, 2014 by Karen Jensen, MLS

The creator of the BBC Sherlock reboot is none other than Steve Moffat, who also is currently helming another popular BBC show – Doctor Who.  One of the things that has always impressed me about Doctor Who as I began watching it was the diversity of the show.  When we first meet the reboot Doctor, […]

I Am SHERLocked: Sherlock Program/Party Ideas

January 7, 2014 by Karen Jensen, MLS

After the success – and fun – of my Doctor Who program, I decided to have a Sherlock themed program.  Pop culture is a great programming tie-in.  For Sherlock, I am doing some hands on forensic science projects as well as some crafting projects.  The forensic science themed projects can be found here at my […]

Sherlock and the Curious Case of Fanfiction, a guest post by author Frankie Brown

January 6, 2014 by Karen Jensen, MLS

Image Source: I Want to be a Pin Up w/Sherlock Fanfic Recs People like to call fiction — especially fanfiction — escapism, as if that’s a bad thing. Fiction does let you escape yourself, but that’s wonderful if inside yourself is sometimes a scary place to be. Fiction has always been my therapy.  Nothing is […]
