Inspired by all the St Hilda's Crime Fiction Weekend excitement, Jill Dye has been looking at examples of that genre from our college library and archive collections. st-hildas.ox.ac.uk/content/st-hil…

Don't forget the library is closed from this Monday 8th - 29th August! But we have booked South 14 & 15 for you to use as a study space and if you need any books the library team will be able to fetch them for you, just email: [email protected]

We're re-open as normal, everyday 8am-1am! The floor refurbishment work has finished so you can access desks, books, computers and printing. Disclaimer: there may still be a little noise as there is ongoing work to the windows and bathrooms.

To coincide with the CILIP Rare Books and Special Collections Group conference (starting today!), michelle a. taylor (@michelletaylor ~elsewhere~) has explored an uncomfortable story portrayed in inscriptions in St Hilda's College Library & Archive collection. If you're here for the conference #RBSCG22 stop by the display case in South Foyer or st-hildas.ox.ac.uk/content/uncomf…
