Barbara Roden (born 1963) is a Canadian writer, editor, publisher and Sherlockian/Doylean scholar.

__TOC__

== Biography ==

With her husband [[Christopher Roden]], she is closely associated with both [[The Arthur Conan Doyle Society (1989-2003)]] and the wider Sherlockian world. She contributed to and was editor of the society's publications, especially ''A.C.D. — The Journal of The Arthur Conan Doyle Society'' and ''The Parish Magazine'', where her articles, reviews and editorials appeared throughout the 1990s and early 2000s.

Barbara is also known as a publisher and editor. With Christopher Roden she ran ''Calabash Press'', which published Doylean and Sherlockian titles, and the ''Ash-Tree Press'', devoted to supernatural and ghost fiction. Her own collection ''I Am Inclined to Think...: Musings on Sherlock Holmes and Arthur Conan Doyle'' was published by Calabash Press in 2004.

Within the Sherlockian community, Barbara Roden was awarded the title of ''Master Bootmaker'' by the Bootmakers of Toronto, Canada's national Sherlock Holmes society, and contributed a regular column to ''Canadian Holmes''. She and Christopher Roden also donated Sherlockian correspondence material to the ''Sherlock Holmes Collections'' at the University of Minnesota, including material connected with John Bennett Shaw and Jack Tracy.

In addition to her Doylean and Sherlockian work, Roden is an established writer and editor in the field of ghost and supernatural fiction ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Roden see her fiction bibliography]).

Outside her literary activities, Barbara has also been active in local public life in British Columbia: she was elected mayor of Ashcroft in 2018 and was acclaimed for a further term in 2022.
