    Strategy 2018-2022

    BODLEIAN LIBRARIES STRATEGY 2018–2022 Sharing knowledge, inspiring scholarship Advancing learning, research and innovation from the heart of the University of Oxford through curating, collecting and unlocking the world’s information. MESSAGE FROM BODLEY’S LIBRARIAN The Bodleian is currently in its fifth century of serving the University of Oxford and the wider world of scholarship. In 2017 we launched a new strategy; this has been revised in 2018 to be in line with the University’s new strategic plan (www.ox.ac.uk/about/organisation/strategic-plan). This new strategy has been formulated to enable the Bodleian Libraries to achieve three key aims for its work during the period 2018-2022, to: 1. help ensure that the University of Oxford remains at the forefront of academic teaching and research worldwide; 2. contribute leadership to the broader development of the world of information and libraries for society; and 3. provide a sustainable operation of the Libraries. The Bodleian exists to serve the academic community in Oxford and beyond, and it strives to ensure that its collections and services remain of central importance to the current state of scholarship across all of the academic disciplines pursued in the University. It works increasingly collaboratively with other parts of the University: with college libraries and archives, and with our colleagues in GLAM, the University’s Gardens, Libraries and Museums. A key element of the Bodleian’s contribution to Oxford, furthermore, is its broader role as one of the world’s leading libraries. This status rests on the depth and breadth of its collections to enable scholarship across the globe, on the deep connections between the Bodleian and the scholarly community in Oxford, and also on the research prowess of the libraries’ own staff, and the many contributions to scholarship in all disciplines, that the library has made throughout its history, and continues to make.

    Michaelmas Term 2013 Update from the Bodleian Libraries

    Trinity Term 2014 Update from the Bodleian Libraries Richard Ovenden Bodley’s Librarian Dear Colleagues, This newsletter is an informal bulletin sent out at the end of every term to keep you up to date on news and developments at the Bodleian Libraries. It aims to provide information on topics that I hope will be of interest to you. I welcome feedback and ideas for future issues. If you would like to contact me with suggestions, please email [email protected]. 1. Library spaces, capital projects and news Progress on the New Bodleian (Weston) Library The Weston Library project continues to make good progress. The building is now taking shape in its final form, with many spaces finished and waiting for books and people to move in! The building’s power and heating systems are working well, and commissioning is underway. The refurbishment of many of the offices and workrooms has been completed, while shelves and reader tables in the reading rooms continue to be installed. The building’s signage scheme is under development and final decisions on both layout and specification of furniture, fixtures and equipment are now being taken. The new archival-standard shelving installation is almost complete and staff are working closely with IT Services to finalise the installation of high quality IT systems to support digital scholarship. Some works will continue in Michaelmas Term, such as the installation of high-quality exhibition cases and the benching systems for the Conservation Centre. An Executive Committee now meets fortnightly to oversee the work of the many internal planning sub-teams.

    SAFA Excursion

    SOCIETY OF AFRICANIST ARCHAEOLOGISTS 25th BIENNIAL MEETING: AFRICAN ARCHAEOLOGY — A 20:20 VISION FOR THE FUTURE Conference Excursions 1. Bristol Led by Prof. Mark Horton, an Africanist with extensive experience in the historical archaeology of Bristol and the Caribbean, this excursion will visit the urban landscape of Bristol, a little over an hour to the west of Oxford and a major centre for both the trans-Atlantic slave trade and continuing debates over its legacy (e.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-47670756). Travel to and from Bristol will be by train, departing at 9.20 a.m. from Oxford railway station. Those taking part will be met at Bristol Temple Meads station by Prof. Horton and returned in time to catch an early evening train back to Oxford. Later departures are also available for those wanting to stay longer. The tour will begin with a trip by ferry through Bristol’s harbour (https://www.bristolferry.com/our-fleet/emily/) followed by a guided walk (±75 minutes) through its city centre taking in sites on the city’s recently developed Slavery Trail (https://geographical.co.uk/uk/discovering-britain/item/3000-walking- bristol-s-slave-trade and https://www.victoriacountyhistory.ac.uk/explore/collection/bristol-slavery-trail). After lunch (which does not form part of the excursion price) the tour will resume with a visit to the M Shed Museum and the newly installed CARGO art exhibition on College Green, which offers an ‘alternative narrative’ to the trans-Atlantic slave trade (https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/whats-on/whats-on-news/cargo-bristols-biggest-art- event-3412104).
