🎃 It's spooky season, and the BCU Library team are making the most of it by organising a cozy crafty session for all to enjoy!

We will be hosting a variety of crafting activities from keyring and badge-making to folding origami bats and creating spooky garlands! You can opt to have them used as decoration around Curzon Library for all to admire or you are more than welcome to take your creations home with you ✨

The session is completely free to join and will be taking place in 📍The Greenhouse (Room C001) on the Ground Floor of Curzon Library on 📆Friday 23rd October from ⏰1-3pm. You can join us for the full two hours or drop in and out as is convenient for you!

ICYMI Curzon Library is currently showcasing a wide range of books on South Asian culture this July for South Asian Heritage Month. We have everything from comics to fiction to photobooks to social commentary, and that's only a fraction of what we have available in our wider collection!

Here at BCU we are immensely proud of the diversity within our university and we always strive to reflect our wonderfully diverse community in our collections and continue our commitment to championing awareness and representation in our libraries ❤️

📚 I picked up Yesteryear from Curzon Library today!

I'd completely forgotten that BCU Library isn't just full of academic books you can borrow fiction too! ✨ From BookTok favourites to bestselling reads, we've got spinners packed with great books waiting to be discovered.

Can't see the book you're after? No problem! You can request we buy it through the Items Not in Stock page on the Library website. Happy reading! 💙
