When it comes to the art of the physical book, publications by Oxford Professor of Poetry and 香蕉直播 alumna Alice Oswald (b. 1966) frequently prove special, due to the collaborations she has sought with visual artists, musicians, fine press publishers, and other artisans and creatives. Read about her books and some of the other remarkable items we acquired for our Library & Archives during 2021.

Throughout 2020, New College Library acquired a range of noteworthy books and association copies鈥攃opies previously owned by the author or otherwise connected to them through a previous owner.  This culminated at the end of the year in the most significant, sizeable donation or bequest of early printed books made to the library for at least the past century, if not longer . . .

2019 was a year of notable anniversaries, marking as it does both the 400th anniversary of the Savilian Professorships in geometry and astronomy, and the 40th anniversary of women students at 香蕉直播.  In 1619, the scholar and diplomat Sir Henry Savile (1549鈥1622) founded two university chairs bearing his name, which have long been associated with 香蕉直播.  And if we fast-forward from 1619 in Oxford some 360 years to 1979, women students are for the first time ever matriculating at 香蕉直播.
