St Hugh's Library

Hello to our followers on X! We are now on Bluesky, are you? Please follow us as we begin posting there: bsky.app/profile/sthugh…

Applications for this post close tomorrow! #jobs #libraryjobs

The @bodleianlibs are running their Reader Survey. Only every three years, it's an important opportunity to provide data on their services. It's also a way to win a visit to the college from some cute animals, or get free ice cream from G&Ds! Here: bit.ly/4htyztq

You can borrow up to 20 books at a time from the library, with your Bod card at the self-service kiosk. You can renew a book up to 4 times, unless someone requests it.

We’re hiring! The position is for one year, maternity cover, for a Library Assistant position. Come and join our lovely team: st-hughs.ox.ac.uk/people-life/wo… #jobs #libraryjobs

All books borrowed before the vacation are due back TODAY. You can return them via the self-service machine in the lobby. If you still need them, you can renew them via SOLO or the machine. We’ve already shelved over 100 today!

Need a crash-course in anything ahead of term? Our collection of Very Short Introductions from @OxUniPress has you covered!

If you were too busy last term to make it to the Bodleian Library tours, the @bodleianskills team are running refresher courses. You can book onto those here: bit.ly/bodrefresh

Welcome back everyone! We hope you had a great vacation, and are feeling refreshed and eager to get back into studying. There are already so many more people in the library! Good luck this term.

The Library Office is closed from 12 noon today until the 6th January. We will not be monitoring these accounts or email over the break. See you in the new year!

We’ve reached the end of Michaelmas term; we hope it’s been a good one and wish you a happy festive season! We’ll be in the library office until the 20th December if you need any help. We are back on the 6th January next year!

There are a lot of items in the lost property box! If you’re missing something and you think it might have been left in the library, come and take a look.

It’s almost the end of term, so please check your library account is up-to-date! You can do this via SOLO, at the kiosk, or by visiting the library office. Any books you borrow now won’t be due back until the 20th January ❄️

The Christmas tree is up in the library lobby! We’ve decorated it with the lovely origami made by students last Trinity term #OXMAS #Christmas

It’s #snowing in Oxford today! Enjoy a few seconds of calm with a view of the library in the falling snow

The winner of the Michaelmas term Pop Lit Poll is the First Law Trilogy by Joe Abercrombie. We will buy this and a selection of other high scorers for our collection! Keep an eye out for their arrival in the library...

Where might an ‘available’ book be if you can’t find it on the shelf?

There are plenty of free @bodleianskills workshops coming up, including various sessions on researching and referencing. They are open to all students and researchers. bit.ly/2rHNvjO

Next week we’ll be starting our Michaelmas term Popular Literature Poll. On Monday we'll let you know how to cast your vote, but in the meantime take a look at the nominees in the image below. #PopLitPoll
