Search CaP collections directory

CaP are redeveloping their collections directory to make it easier to search and edit entries so this function is a work in progress. We will be contacting all those contributors who were on the original directory but if you are connected to a crime and punishment collection or building and would like to be included please click on the Add to Collections directory on the home page.

Some search tips: The general Search Listings bar will look for any part of the address, a postcode, any part of the organisation name and the region or country. It will also search for type of collection so try entering “museum”, “library”, “archive” or “site” (for heritage site). Below the bar you will find themes of collections for you to search. The small Advanced Search button below Find Listings displays a more detailed search list and you can select as many options as you want. To return to the main directory page, select Directory
