About the event

Once a year, in August, we invite the Friends of the Bodleian to go inside the Radcliffe Camera. The library is closed early to allow the Friends a bespoke and private view.

Led by two experienced guides, this evening tour includes the beautiful Duke Humfrey’s Library, the underground Gladstone Link tunnel and the Radcliffe Camera. 

Come and hear the stories of these historic and unique buildings.

Speakers

Clare Denton and Emanuele Faccenda
