Papers of CS Lewis in Oxford (Wheaton)

Actually, my question would relate equally to the collection at Wheaton, so anyone who's been there might be able to answer.
I'll be returning to England for a short trip in October and plan to visit the Bodliean to read the Papers of C.S. Lewis. As a former alumnus of the university, I already have a reader's card, so that is not an issue. However, I would like to have an estimate of how much time I should set aside for the visit.
Having read most - if not all - of CSL's works that have been published, I would be interested to hear which manuscripts, correspondence, essays and notebooks in the collection are "must-reads". Plus, any other information those who have made the trip(s) might be able to give.
