It may be summer, but we continue to add stock to the libraries all year round. And in this case, the Campus Library's list is longer than normal because we've been replacing some worn-out textbooks ready for the next academic year.

#explorearchives Original designs for bookbindings
Three
unique volumes of George T. Bagguley’s finishing designs are held in the
Library’s Archives. Bagguley was an
internationally renowned bookbinder of Newcastle-under-Lyme. His shop was
situated on the High Street and sold books and stationery, as well as offering
a printing and binding service. Established
in 1890 and operating until 1952, the firm employed a number of designers (Leon
V. Solon, Dorothy Talbot and Charles Connor), as well as eminent binders such
as Louis Genth and Thomas E. Caley.
This elaborate design for vellum doublures (the
ornamental inside lining of a book cover) was designed by Thomas E Caley in
1905. To

Keele Library widget
Have you ever come across a book on another website and wondered whether Keele has a copy? Up until now, you had to make a note of the title and retype it into the catalogue. Now you don't - we have a browser widget to do it for you.
Simply click on a link in the Bookmarks bar in your browser and the widget goes away and checks for you, bringing up a link to the library copy - it doesn't even have to be exactly the same edition.
Developed in collaboration with our colleagues at LibraryThing, there are versions of the widget for most browsers. You can read more about it and download the widget to your PC here. Let us know what you think!
