🐻 Bear sightings reported across campus

Book Bear has been quietly building an impressive reading pile. Nook Bear has made themselves very comfortable in a favourite Library spot. Skills Bear has been busy sharing useful know-how wherever they go. Rumour has it there are more bears out there, too.

Keep an eye on our socials and look out for bears at our upcoming Library events…

From the LBU Archives: The West Yorkshire Society of Architects Collection

Welcome to From the LBU Archives, a new series exploring the fascinating collections preserved in LBU Library Archives & Special Collections.

Founded in Leeds in 1876, brought together generations of architects to share ideas, inspiration and expertise.

From beautifully illustrated books to journals, records and publications, this collection offers a glimpse into the people and ideas that helped shape the built environment around us.

Swipe through to explore some highlights from the collection, now preserved at LBU Library.

With thanks to our Archive & Special Collections Officer and Metadata Librarian for their expertise and support.

Think streaming has everything? Think again. Films disappear, licences expire, and sometimes your favourites are just... gone.

That's why physical media still matters. And yes, you can borrow plenty of it from the Library!
