Old Tunnels, New Light
Yesterday I was in Oxford for a workshop that was followed by a tour of the Bodleian Library. The various library buildings are connected by a set of underground tunnels designed to transport books. Some of the old cellars and stacks are now transformed into reading rooms, and because of these works we could only see the modernised parts without the old conveyor belt system I was so looking forward to seeing in action.
