Woke up early for #MayMorning and feeling worse for wear? We've been there. Come sit in the Art Library. It's nice and quiet and we have air conditioning. (and nobody will judge you for getting a quick nap in!)

As the news spotlight points at the Vatican in the build-up to the Conclave, we turn our attention to the immense body of art history surrounding and influenced by the Catholic Church. See our second floor display for modern art, architecture, and archaeology in the Vatican!

If a resource in the catalogue mentions that it has a corresponding CD or DVD, these can borrowed from the issue desk to use in the library. The library also has a DVD player that can be borrowed (USB plug in) for laptops and computers without a disc drive.

This Sunday is International Museum Day ! At the Art Library readers engage in a variety of ways with museums for their research. Have a look in the Haverfield room (ground floor) and on the second floor to browse past museum journals, catalogues and auction books.

It's Pride Month, and no self-respecting Classics library should let it pass without a nod to the original Lesbian: Sappho! We've gathered a small selection of our many sources about her life and poetry, and you can check it out on the second floor.

It's that time of year again 😢 We're sad to see you go, but before you leave us, take a look at our leavers' checklist to see if there's anything you still need to do!
