<\/a>Students chat at the Exhibition Opening<\/p><\/div>\n
The guests included members of the teaching and Information Services staff, prospective students and their parents, guests from other specialist collections and students who had completed the course last semester. I don’t think I have ever seen the reading room buzzing with so many people and so much excitement! It was a great way to round off the module and the term, and to include the wider university, friends and colleagues in the students’ success.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Students and staff<\/p><\/div>\n
The Exhibition pages on the Special Collections website have now been updated to include Spring 2011<\/a> along with Autumn 2010<\/a>; please do take a look at them, if you haven’t already done so. Remember, the exhibition is going to be on until 9th May<\/strong> at the usual reading room opening times of 9.30-1 and 2-4.30, Monday-Friday, so please do come and visit us. We will be closed <\/em><\/strong>on the four bank holidays over Easter weekend and the Royal wedding.<\/p>\n Students of DR:575 can relax at last<\/p><\/div>\n Those who have already come to have a look have left comments such as:<\/p>\n ‘Fascinating exhibitions, interesting themes and good use of materials.’<\/p>\n ‘…a lovely atmosphere…appealed to a wider variety of the senses’.<\/p>\n ‘…real inspiration for my teaching’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n ‘…not constrained by the expectations of a museum exhibition…’<\/p>\n With so many people inspired and intrigued by the work of the students it looks as though we will be putting on more exhibitions in the near future, so keep an eye out for Special Collections materials being displayed around the campus. I will, of course, keep you up to date with all of the developments on this blog.<\/p>\n<\/a>
