Visit the Hartley Library Level 4 Gallery and our latest exhibition 'Looking Back, Looking Forward: Hartley Library Transformations. The exhibition looks at the Hartley Library through its five distinct phases of development from pre first world war, through the Turner Sims and Gurney Dixon work of the 1930s and 1950s and on to the 1980s and the 2000 wrap around extension. It will include a selection of items from our Archives and Special Collections, new digital content in response to the material in the archives alongside future development ideas.

There will also be a chance to engage with alumni memories of the Hartley Library, part of our Hartley History Postcard project.
