About meThere has been a library at Queen’s since the foundation of the College in 1341. The beautiful Upper Library was built in the late seventeenth century and remains one of the jewels of Oxford architecture.

The collection has grown significantly over the years, and the library is now the largest in an Oxford college, with a lending collection of over 40,000 volumes and nearly 100,000 volumes in the historical collection.

About my libraryOur LibraryThing collection shows a selection of recent Library acquisitions. Books that appear here will be available on the new books display in the Library shortly after their addition.

Our favourite LibraryThing authors are all current or old members of the College. More will be added over time - check out our tags to see recent works by old members.

RSS feeds of recent acquisitions and books by old members can also be found on our Facebook page - please become our fan! http://snipurl.com/qc-library
