Bodleian Libraries & The Store
The Bodleian Libraries are pleased to partner with The Store Hotel to present our Narnia-inspired window display, running through November and December 2024.
The Bodleian Libraries
Officially opened in 1602, the Bodleian Libraries has welcomed famous scholars through the ages, from monarchs to iconic writers, including Oscar Wilde, JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis.
Visit the Bodleian Libraries today and tour the historic spaces (that you might recognise from popular film and TV series), visit free exhibitions featuring the libraries’ rich collections, or treat yourself to a memento from the library shops.
The Store, Carrying Forward a Rich Legacy
Located in the very heart of Oxford, Boswells was one of the world’s oldest department stores, family-owned and much-loved by the local community. In the tradition of great British department stores, Boswells was a place of discovery – where mothers brought their children to pick out toys, friends met for lunch and locals regularly popped in to see what was new in store.
Now, reimagined as a luxury hotel, destination restaurant, bars and spa, The Store carries forward a rich legacy of discovery, a place where people stay meet, gather and discover.
