Final tweet of the year, to wish you all a very happy Christmas. This collage is of some of the non-Repton ephemera that I've found tucked inside books and boxes donated to our archives. I particularly like the seasonal prize of 'a live pig and five dead geese!' @TheEphemerist
Enormous thanks to @ReptonArchives for providing such a brilliant setting for this evenings talk by Lord Egremont. This brilliant exhibition on World War I could not have been a more perfect place for the talk, surrounded by OR’s who lost their lives in the final year of WWI
Possibly one of the most beautiful creatures ever to grace the Library steps - a dragonfly, resting in windy conditions.
A recipe for happiness in the Common Room this morning: Pigeonholes stuffed with rabbit. I'm sure there were only two of them when I left on Saturday!
After some fiendish last minute question tweaking, I think I'm ready for tomorrow night's General Knowledge Competition. Very tempting, as ever, to throw in a round on medieval music or 17th century pottery in Lower Bohemia.
Very exciting to be celebrating World Book Day tomorrow with this. Very difficult to choose only two books I love from the hundreds I've read!

A selection of some of the great new design books, added to the library collection for Lower Sixth Form projects. An eclectic mix - everything from kettles and lamps to Lego and wooden mice! @ReptonDesign

Overjoyed to have identified one of my favourite authors, Christopher Isherwood, (Hall 1919) on a house photograph from 1921 (3 rows down, 3rd from left). My heartfelt thanks to Don Bachardy and the Christopher Isherwood Foundation for confirming it. @IsherwoodFdn

Just a few of the fantastic science books available to borrow from the Library. Always very happy to take suggestions for new titles.
Speech Day prize books arriving by the box load. Yearbooks imminent. 260 loans to get back by next Thursday. There's never a dull moment!
