The Weston Library offers free, inspiring exhibitions featuring the libraries’ rich collections, a unique gift shop, a toddler-friendly space called the Toddleian, and a café set against the backdrop of the floating book stacks in its atrium of Blackwell Hall. It also hosts a wide variety of events, from lectures to family-friendly activities; see the upcoming programme here.
The refurbished building is the home of the Bodleian Libraries special collections, and is a busy working library that houses several reading rooms, a research centre, a conservation studio and much more.
