NTU Library Community

Students, staff, and anyone curious about language…Join us at Boots Library on Wednesday 24 June, 16:00–17:30 in BTS329 for a guest lecture from Professor Christopher Mulvey (University of Wi******er).

Why Punctuation? is a fascinating look at how punctuation has evolved and why it still matters today. Includes a Q&A.

Open to all, but if you're bringing people who are not NTU students or staff to NTU please contact us, or go to your nearest library info desk, as there's some paperwork.

Sign up for this free lecture now via the short online form in bio.

The Glow Sensory Room and the Rest Nest in Boots Library will be closed for the rest of the week. Work starts today on a brand new mural on Level 2. The design was created, and will be painted, by a student. We hope this doesn't cause you any inconvenience, and will keep you updated on reopening.

Incredible library spaces for neurodivergent students part 2: step into The Rest Nest and explore this calming space in Boots Library 😌
In this video Dellie, president of NTU’s Neurodivergent Society, shows us around. The Rest Nest is a place for all students to read, relax, do some crafting, book swap, chill (but not sleep), and just take your mind off your studies. If you’re looking for study spaces, or a prayer room, check out our website.

Your Library spaces can only thrive if we treat them with respect. So please take some time to read our guidelines in the room. You can always talk to a member of staff if you have concerns or questions 🪴🧘🏽
