The redecoration of the Voltaire Room needs a bit more time, and so will be extending into next week (w/b Monday 7th April).

If you need material from the room before it reopens, please let library staff know at the Enquiry Desk!

Many thanks for your patience as we refresh this space.
🚧Voltaire Room Redecoration🚧

The Voltaire Room will be closed between 17th March and 5th April for redecoration. The room will not be accessible to readers during this time.

There will be a limited fetching service, so any requested books will be ready the next weekday. Just ask us!

Had a really great time yesterday at the Oxford Digital Festival, representing the Taylor Institution's information skills project, Taylor Editions: editions.mml.ox.ac.uk. I learnt about a huge number of different initiatives. Look out for the event write up and recordings of the main talks!
