The Royal Greenwich Observatory Archives live at the Cambridge University Library since then.In 2003 the JWL's collection of duplicates was donated to the Biblioteca "José Pérez Vidal" of the Excmo. Cabildo Insular de La Palma. The following organisations have made contributions to the operation of the JWL:
