Loved the exhibitions - they are not only there to inform but to make you think deeper and critically. Even though I only explored the first floor, the library was exceptionally cozy with a cafe, small book section which tells us why these books mean something to people and the exhibition spaces. Spent like 2 hours here, wishing I could have spent longer.

Books 📚 and reading is important. Variety is applicable to all

The special collection reading room is beautiful, but security is extremely strict: 1. You must put your bag in a locker. See the 2nd photo: “bags that are larger than this [sign] or bags that this sign will fit into will not be permitted in the Weston Library”. 2. You will be asked to open your laptop on your way in and out for them to check 💻 3. Pencils only in the Special Collection Reading Room. No pens, highlighters or crayons (See 3rd photo) The security measures are understandable, presumably because the library holds rare collections, and is located in one of the the busiest areas in Oxford (opposite the Sheldonian Theatre and close to the Rad Cam).
