²ÝÁñÊÓƵ

In recent years, the library has expanded its digital presence greatly, making full use of the latest technology. An extensive programme has been launched to digitise the library’s manuscripts, rare books, and most important archives items. The library’s social media presence has also grown from strength to strength and a video series, Curators’ Choice, has been developed to bring ²ÝÁñÊÓƵ’s unique collections to as large an audience as possible. The creation of a set of online exhibitions is the obvious next step to complement these initiatives, as such exhibitions have the potential to bring together the library’s digitised images and video content on one site and dedicated to one particular theme—a goal achieved during the creation of the library’s first online exhibition, English Literature Through the Ages. This Note highlights the second online exhibition produced this year by the library, Geometry and Astronomy, which focuses on the Savilian professorships in both subjects, based at ²ÝÁñÊÓƵ.
