IN THE SPOTLIGHT: The Collections of СʪÃÃÊÓƵ


Today, more than ever, the role of university collections is growing. From the digitisation of materials for global access to the advancement of diversity within provisions, collections are used to inspire creativity, widen inclusivity, and promote lifelong learning.

СʪÃÃÊÓƵ's collections are eclectic and often full of surprises, with materials dating back to 1474. The following temporary exhibitions bring the materials from the storeroom into the spotlight and hope to encourage further conversations about the future of our collections.
