Nancy Drew Sleuths is an organization of Nancy Drew® collectors, fans and scholars,
established on April 10, 2000 for the purpose of fostering the enduring legacy of Nancy Drew®.
We began as an online discussion group and grew into much more with annual conventions, regional gatherings, and many projects. We are an organization for both novice and advanced fans, collectors and scholars. Our organization includes collectors of all ages with the majority being in their twenties to fifties. We have both male and female members. If you're a parent who wants to sign their child up, we recommend you sign up for our Jr. Detective Squad which will probably be more suitable for those under 18!
Kids, join our ND Sleuths: Jr. Detective Squad! If you would like to join our group, scroll down this page for membership information.

The Nancy Drew Sleuths is an organization for the collector and scholar--we're mostly an adult group, so we recommend
kids join
the
Jr. Detective Squad club we offer! It's for kids under 18. Within our Nancy Drew Sleuths organization, we focus on
series books and Nancy Drew®
through our online discussion group, our website, and our annual conventions. At annual conventions, our
Charity Raffles for great Nancy Drew® prizes benefit area libraries or children's charities. Published six times
per year, our series zine,
The Sleuth, is becoming a more prominent feature in the series book community. In October
2006, we went to a printed and mailed subscriber only edition. The Sleuth focuses on Nancy Drew® as well
as other girls' and boys' series books.

"Really, though, I just love you and everyone here on the list, I've learned so much about the series, Nancy, and the whole group, gotten great new insights - I've gotten even more hooked, if that is possible - just recently read my first *Files* book - #29, Pure Poison. It's funny, my mom picked up several Files books several years ago, 29 being one of them, at a yard sale, knowing how I loved Nancy - but for some reason, I couldn't bring myself to read them, since I didn't feel like they were REALLY Nancy Drew books!! It's silly, I know :-) But it is interesting to see the contrast between them and the original 56, and this group has certainly helped in that regard. Not to mention that every list member is absolutely GREAT!!! Thank you for all your work! It's a labor of love, I know."...Felicia
"I really enjoy the group. The book reviews are awesome. I now know which are really worth reading and spending money for. Everyone is interesting. It's a fun group to belong to because there aren't major fights like other lists I belong to. This is probably one of the best Yahoo! Groups there is. (Besides a few of my own!)"...Valerie
"I love this group for several reasons:
(1) It has given me a good feeling that I am not crazy for having read and enjoyed Nancy Drew and other series books. I have a lot of company out there.
(2) I've met a lot of nice, caring, supportive people.
(3) What a way to get an education! It's the only time I've experienced getting an education and having fun at the same time.
(4) The expert collectors are ready, willing and able to explain to us neophytes about the different editions and dj artwork, etc, over and over again. No one throws his/her weight around as an expert, and no question asked seems too stupid. Although I don't do ebay, I am trying to build my collection by visiting rare/second hand bookstores, flea markets and antique store sales. This group has been instrumental in whetting my interest in doing so. Just haven't gotten too lucky yet and am currently hampered by a very limited budget, but I'll keep trying."...Kathleen
