  • Update from the Bodleian Libraries Sarah E Thomas Bodley's Librarian

    Update from the Bodleian Libraries Sarah E Thomas Bodley's Librarian

    Update from the Bodleian Libraries Sarah E Thomas Bodley’s Librarian Dear Colleagues, As we enter November and pass the half way mark in Michaelmas Term I want to update you in the first of what I intend to be many informal bulletins about some of the new services and changes taking place across the Bodleian Libraries. I plan to send one of these emails each term, but I’d welcome your feedback on whether or not you find them useful as well as what the frequency should be. 2012/13 is proving to be a busy year. With the construction of the Book Storage Facility completed and over 7 million books, journals, maps, and other archival materials moved, you might think we would have settled down into a routine. However, we are operating our services amidst a sea of change, and this past year we’ve experienced some turbulence. It’s hardly business as usual as our special collections have been camped out in the Lankester Room of the Radcliffe Science Library, and readers consulting Bodley’s maps and music collections are working in Duke Humfrey’s. Well over a hundred staff are dispersed temporarily in rooms in the Old Bodleian, the Clarendon Building, and Osney. Meanwhile, the refurbishment of the New Bodleian is proceeding apace. At the same time we have been undertaking these massive changes, there have been several initiatives on a smaller scale which have been controversial. This newsletter will update you on what’s been happening. I hope that you’ll welcome the information and that you will let me know if you have questions about these or other Bodleian Libraries activities.
  • Collection Policy for History (British & Western Europe)

    Collection Policy for History (British & Western Europe)

    Collection Policy for History (British & Western Europe) This policy describes in general terms the purpose and scope of Oxford’s collection relating to the History of Britain and Western Europe and the constituencies served. Separate policies exist for related collections, e.g. US History, Eastern Europe, African & Commonwealth studies, History of Art, History of Science, Technology and Mathematics, History of Medicine and Special Collections Western Manuscripts. 1. Overview 1.1 General coverage of subject in Bodleian Libraries Collections in Oxford for the study of the history of the British Isles and Western Europe are one the second finest and most extensive in the UK, after those held by the British Library. They provide remarkably rich resources for staff and students of the University as well as many researchers from worldwide. The Bodleian Library is the central research library of the University and offers access to in-depth research level collections for British and Western European History on a reference-only basis. Researchers benefit from almost unparalleled access to manuscripts, archives (medieval to modern), early printed works, newspapers, maps, microforms collections, and modern printed monographs and journals. Key source materials for British and Western European history are held in the Upper Reading Room and Duke Humfrey’s Library of the Old Library. Related research collections are also held elsewhere in Oxford, most notably in the Taylor Institution Library, the library of the Maison Française d’Oxford and in some college libraries. The research collections are supplemented by the lending and teaching collections held primarily at the Bodleian History Faculty Library (HFL), embedded in the Radcliffe Camera.
  • An A-Z of the Bodleian

    An A-Z of the Bodleian

    oxfordtimes.co.uk Bodleian A-Z is for the Taylorian Library — an integral part of the Taylor Institute. It is also part of the TBodleian group of libraries. The Taylorian occupies the east wing of the building which also houses the Ashmolean Museum on Beaumont Street and it has its main entrance on St Giles. Named after its founder Sir Robert Taylor, the institute is the University’s centre for the study of European languages and literature — other than English itself. Sir Robert was a renowned 18th-century architect who designed grand houses for the wealthy and became architect to the Bank of England. In 1769, he was appointed Architect of the King’s Works and could name John Nash and Samuel Pepys Cockerell among his pupils. Although it is not recorded anywhere, James Legg, Taylor Librarian, thinks that Taylor was likely to have travelled extensively to study European architecture, perhaps undertaking a Grand Tour, part of a well-to-do young man’s education in the 18th century. What is certain is that he developed a deep interest in European culture and languages and, finding himself disapproving of his son’s somewhat profligate lifestyle, Sir Robert, who died in 1788, left the bulk of his estate to the University of Oxford for “establishing a foundation for the teaching and improving the European languages”. Unsurprisingly, his son, Michael Angelo, contested the will and the case rumbled on in true Dickensian style. It was not until 1834 following Michael Angelo’s death — he was said to give the best dinner parties of any man in London — that it was possible for the disputed money to be put to its intended use, the creation of what is now the Taylorian Institute.

  • Merton College Handbook for Junior Members 2021-22

    Merton College Handbook for Junior Members 2021-22

    MERTON COLLEGE HANDBOOK FOR JUNIOR MEMBERS 2021-22 The College Handbook is divided into four sections. The first section contains the text of a contract governing the relationship between the College and its junior members and should be read in conjunction with the comparable contract provided by the University of Oxford. Junior members will be asked to confirm their acceptance of both contracts by signature when they are admitted to the College and the University. The second section contains information about: (i) The status of junior members; (ii) The organisation and management of the College; (iii) Provision of an academic, financial, welfare, domestic or recreational nature made by the College for junior members, and policies and procedures that apply to dealings between the College and junior members; (iv) Statutory, contractual and other legal obligations that are placed on the College in its dealings with junior members. The third section contains detailed regulations that apply to junior members in their dealings with the College, including statutory, contractual and other legal obligations. The fourth section contains the text of the agreement that governs the provision of accommodation by the College to junior members. Many of the regulations, agreements and undertakings contained in the College Handbook create legally binding obligations on the College and on junior members. All legal obligations are governed by English Law. Before coming into residence at the College, junior members must sign and return a statement that they have read and understood these regulations and agreements and undertake to abide by them. All junior members should therefore read the College Handbook carefully and seek advice where necessary.

  • Library Accessibility Guide 2018

    Library Accessibility Guide 2018

    Library Accessibility Guide 2018 Project and report conducted by Ebie Edwards Cole and Kathryn Reece On behalf of OSDC’s Committee (Oxford Students’ Disabilities Community) Page 1 of 108 Contents Introduction Purpose, objectives. Specific Library Information Links Use the links to access information regarding a specific library. Key Findings Statistics, facts of particular note. Individual Library Information Information gathered regarding each library. Page 2 of 108 Introduction The Library Accessibility Project (LAP) was completed over the summer of 2018 by two of OSDC’s Executive Committee Members, Ebie Edwards Cole and Kathryn Reece. OSDC is Oxford SU’s Campaign for inclusion and accessibility for students with disabilities. The reason for undertaking the LAP was due to concerns with regards to lack of accessibility of Oxford University Libraries, raised by several members of the OSDC community and recognised by the OSDC committee. The initial purpose of the LAP was to gather accurate information about all current libraries affiliated with the University of Oxford, as current information sources are in need of updating, enabling students to understand the current accessibility of all libraries, and the facilities available to them at each library. However, when gathering information and student opinion, it became evident that there are inconsistencies with the accessibility standards across the university libraries. Using the JISC library accessibility framework (https://www.jisc.ac.uk/guides/enhancing-staff-support-for-learners-with- disabilities/the-accessible-library) and self assessments provided, plus findings from our data, we have collated a set of recommendations for libraries affiliated with the University of Oxford. Based on this analysis, a report was created to discuss the practical implications of the findings.
