Calling library historians. This is Hillsborough Library in #Sheffield. It opened as a library in 1906 but the building, Grade II-listed, was built in 1779. Is this the oldest building in the country to house a public library? #LibraryHistory

📚 Got a @BWBooks gift card for Christmas, cart full of #libraryhistory books today. Then I took a walk. Passed my local @LtlFreeLibrary, miles closer than nearest #publiclibrary. No kids books. Back home, emptied cart & filled it with kids books. Will add 2/week for 10 weeks.

Here are the Library Rules for @theUL being edited to give women of @GirtonCollege and @Newnham_College the same privileges as @Cambridge_Uni men in 1923 (finally). But who’s the man doodled in the margin? He looks very displeased. Or has he fallen asleep?! 😂 #LibraryHistory

Translated from Latin we can read from Uffenbach, his time spent in the shop of Themme, a glass grinding #optician in the village of #Kassel, #Germany and later at his home, the events indicating he was shown movement through Magic Lantern slides 16 years before Musschenbroek.

Calling library historians. This is Hillsborough Library in #Sheffield. It opened as a library in 1906 but the building, Grade II-listed, was built in 1779. Is this the oldest building in the country to house a public library? #LibraryHistory

The Middle Temple Library has its origins in the bequest by Robert Ashley of his book collection in 1641. There had been a library prior to that date, but by the time of Henry VIII all the books had been stolen. #archives #libraryhistory

This man is very grumpy about women students (allegedly) overcrowding the @bodleianlibs and sweeping away pens, ink and papers with their skirts and boas. I say these ladies had style! ‘Oxford Magazine’, xviii (1900), pp. 393-4 #libraryhistory
