Since its opening in 1695, Fellows have been allowed to work in the #WrenLibrary: read the story of Walter Ullmann (1910-1983), who fled Austria in the 1930s to find refuge - physical but, most of all, intellectual - in the Wren. Hot off our (blog) presses: t.ly/xmxr4. #TreasuresFromTheCollections

It’s been a minute since we last added to our #CambridgeLibraryBingo card, but spring is in the air so #CULconservation took a stroll to the Wren library @trincolllibcam.bsky.social

Just made it to the #WrenLibrary shelves: a ‘catechism’ for young French revolutionaries! Including the Declaration of the rights of man and of the citizen. Bound in a fragment of an eighteenth-century manuscript. Catalogue record: rb.gy/9jw03u. #WrenAcquisitions

Back in January, the #WrenLibrary hosted Arcangelo, an award-winning, internationally-acclaimed period performance ensemble, whose musicians performed, among others, Telemann’s ‘Paris’ Quartet No.6. The concert was filmed and you can enjoy it at www.youtube.com/watch?/v=UU-....

For #ThrowbackThursday we're throwing things all the way back to this recently re-digitised thirteenth-century #beastiary in the #WrenLibrary collection. Check it out the manuscript here: mss-cat.trin.cam.ac.uk/Manuscript/O..., and this great elephant pursuing a dragon on f. 60r!

Cambridgessa on ollut ilo tehdä töitä, mutta nyt Sara jää pääsiäislomalle ennen Suomeen ja TiTaRa-hommiin palaamista ⚗️✨️

Work is under way to build a database of provenance-related images from the #WrenLibrary collections. It will take *some* time, but we are very excited, and have our thinking caps on - we want to make it as easily searchable and user-friendly as possible. Watch this space! #behindthescenes

We are here! Looking forward to building a new community of followers and interacting with you all. We will be posting digitisation updates, glimpses of life in the #WrenLibrary, our own blog posts - of which we are extremely proud!, news of events, beautiful images, and more. Watch this space!
