One of our favourite things about our library is the interactive floorplan which can be searched by shelfmark to help readers find resources! Very handy to have in a circular library📍 Find it at the link below👇
#BodTakeover On the new @bodartlib account, we’re highlighting things that it make it easier to navigate the Art Library. We’re one of the only Bod libraries (so far!) to have an interactive floorplan map to help our readers find items by shelfmark! floorplan.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/…

#BodTakeover You might know @bodartlib best for our vast Classics collection – including our well-loved Classics Lending Library, which might be *too* familiar to some of our Classics undergraduate students!

Nononono, definitely get out to the library. Launcelot needs you!
The thing is huge, even our mega-scanner wasn't big enough (we had to stitch two images together). Please do digitise! 😁

When the Sac swoops in to provide proper arks with unicorns in 👌 (what's the point otherwise?) #UnicornOnBoard
We submit this ark, complete with a unicorn, for your consideration. Athanasius Kircher really knew his stuff. (Kircher's Arca Nöe, from @SacklerLibrary #MM:KIR [fol.])

UPDATE: the Book Storage Facility is closed due to worsening weather conditions, so we won't have a book delivery this afternoon either. We're sorry for the disruption - any live stack requests are now expected to arrive on Monday.

Your hardy library crew have battled the blizzards of Oxford to make it in today, so we are OPEN as usual! However, there will be no morning stack delivery. Keep an eye out for further updates in case of worsening weather.

Replying to @bodleianlibs
Ooh. It's close! We're talking about similar budgets, of course, so it's an entirely fair contest 😜
