SUMMARY:Pets & their People
DESCRIPTION:Pets & their People\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Pets & their People\n\n\n\nWe have been domesticating animals for over ten thousand years. But why do we want tame wolves in our homes or wild cats on our laps? \n\n\n\nThis exhibition explores the relationship between humans and their pets – or pets and their humans. \n\n\n\nPets & their People draws on depictions of pets in stories\, imagery and poetry in the Bodleian’s collection – from one of the earliest recorded depictions of an assistance dog for the blind to a rare copy of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland that has never been displayed in the UK before.  \n\n\n\nThe exhibition asks how the special bond between owners and their pets has evolved over time\, and what that evolution tells us about who we really are. \n\n\n\nAre we taming our pets\, or are they bringing us back to our wild roots? \n\n\n\nExhibition book \n\n\n\nPets & their People \n\n\n\nBy Charles Foster \n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		Exhibition book – Pets & their People\n\n\n\nBestselling author Charles Foster provides an extraordinary mix of psychology\, science and cultural history as he explores the fascinating relationship between humans and their pets. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese wonderful images are actually postcards\, collected by the artist Tom Phillips (1937–2022) and part of the archive donated to the Bodleian Libraries. \n\n\n\nDating from the c1890s – 1960s\, they capture different relationships between people and the animals around them. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCall for submissions \n\n\n\nAs part of the exhibition\, the Bodleian Libraries are inviting members of the public to contribute to a contemporary record of people and their pets. Participants are encouraged to submit photographs featuring themselves and their pets\, either by recreating images from the Tom Phillips postcard collection or by sharing original photographs inspired by the theme. \n\n\n\nSend them to socialmedia@bodleian.ox.ac.uk. When you submit\, please include:  \n\n\n\n\nYour name/handle\n\n\n\nYour pet’s name\n\n\n\nA rough geographic place and date\n\n\n\n\nTerms and conditions \n\n\n\nBy submitting an image to the Bodleian Libraries\, you confirm that: \n\n\n\n\nYou have taken the photograph or have permission from the copyright holder to share it.\n\n\n\nAll individuals featured in the image have given their consent for it to be used\, or if under the age of 18\, consent has been obtained by a parent or guardian.\n\n\n\nYou are happy for the Bodleian Libraries to share the image across its website\, social media channels and other digital channels.\n\n\n\n\nParticipants may withdraw their consent at any time by contacting socialmedia@bodleian.ox.ac.uk. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree admission.

SUMMARY:Wonder of Birds Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Wonder of Birds Exhibition\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Wonder of Birds Exhibition\n\n\n\nA major new exhibition at the Bodleian Libraries invites visitors to step into the remarkable world of birds\, exploring their beauty\, symbolism and fragility through art\, literature and science. \n\n\n\nWonder of Birds draws inspiration from The Book of Birds\, created by artist Jackie Morris and writer Robert Macfarlane. Both the exhibition and the book reflect on the decline of bird populations while celebrating their cultural and natural significance. \n\n\n\nCurated by Antonia Harrison\, the exhibition unfolds through seven themed sections – from nest and egg to feather\, flight and migration – combining original artwork and writing with treasures from the Bodleian’s extensive collections. \n\n\n\nVisitors can explore rare and historic material\, including previously unseen glass plate negatives by pioneering wildlife photographer Emma Louisa Turner\, alongside early nature photography from Richard Kearton and his brother Cherry. \n\n\n\nAlso on display are striking life-size illustrations from Birds of America by John James Audubon\, as well as a rare Great Auk egg on loan from Oxford University Museum of Natural History. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition also highlights birds’ enduring influence on culture\, featuring works such as Maya Angelou’s ‘Caged Bird’ and Percy Bysshe Shelley’s handwritten notes on ‘To a Skylark’. Global perspectives include imagery from The Book of the Fixed Stars and the poetic journey of The Conference of the Birds. \n\n\n\nEnhancing the experience\, a specially commissioned soundscape by sound artist Jason Singh immerses visitors in birdsong and natural environments\, while artist duo Daniel & Clara present an interactive ‘Rewilding Imagination field guide’. \n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		Wonder of Birds poster\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree admission\, no ticket required \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nSaturday 02 May 2026 to Sunday 03 January 2027 \n\n\n\nMonday to Friday from 9.00am to 5.00pmSaturday from 10.00am to 5.00pmSunday from 11.00am to 4.00pm \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nThe Treasury\, Weston Library

SUMMARY:34: The critical raw materials shaping our future
DESCRIPTION:34: The critical raw materials shaping our future\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Breaking Ground\n\n\n\n34: The Critical Raw Materials Shaping Our Future is a major new exhibition at Oxford University Museum of Natural History explores the hidden materials that power modern life — from smartphones and batteries to medical equipment and jet engines. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition examines the 34 raw materials considered essential to the UK’s future\, revealing the global supply chains\, ethical challenges and scientific innovations behind the minerals that underpin everyday technology. \n\n\n\nDeveloped in collaboration with researchers from the University of Oxford’s Oxford EARTH Programme and departments across the physical\, life and social sciences\, the exhibition explores how increasing demand for green energy and digital technology is transforming the global race for critical materials. \n\n\n\nVisitors can discover why substances such as lithium\, cobalt and rare earth elements are so important to modern society\, why supply chains are becoming increasingly fragile\, and how scientists and industry are searching for more sustainable and ethical ways to source\, use and recycle these materials. \n\n\n\nThrough interactive displays\, scientific research\, historic objects and contemporary technologies\, the exhibition examines the future of extraction\, sustainability and resource security\, while highlighting the environmental and geopolitical challenges linked to critical raw materials. \n\n\n\nDesigned for audiences of all ages\, the exhibition is accompanied by a programme of talks\, workshops\, tours and family activities exploring the science\, ethics and global impact of the materials shaping our future. \n\n\n\nWhat are critical raw materials?\n\n\n\nCritical raw materials are those essential to key technologies but their supply may be limited\, unsustainable or unethical. Critical raw materials tend to have unique chemical properties which make them difficult to replace in technology. The UK government includes 34 raw materials on its designated critical list\, but lists vary from country to country. \n\n\n\n\n\n\naluminium\n\n\n\nantimony\n\n\n\nbismuth\n\n\n\nborates\n\n\n\ncobalt\n\n\n\ngallium\n\n\n\ngermanium\n\n\n\nhafnium\n\n\n\nhelium\n\n\n\nindium\n\n\n\niridium\n\n\n\niron\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nlithium\n\n\n\nmagnesite\n\n\n\nmagnesium\n\n\n\nmanganese\n\n\n\nnatural graphite\n\n\n\nnickel\n\n\n\nniobium\n\n\n\nphosphorus\n\n\n\nplatinum\n\n\n\nrare earth elements (REEs)\n\n\n\nrhenium\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nrhodium\n\n\n\nruthenium\n\n\n\nsilicon\n\n\n\nsodium\n\n\n\ntantalum\n\n\n\ntellurium\n\n\n\ntin\n\n\n\ntitanium\n\n\n\ntungsten\n\n\n\nvanadium\n\n\n\nzinc\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nPrices: \n\n\n\n\nEntry to the Museum is FREE and not ticketed.\n\n\n\nNo booking required.\n\n\n\nBooking is required for organisations/groups of more than ten people visiting on the same day.\n\n\n\n\nOpening hours: \n\n\n\n\nMonday to Sunday from 10.00am to 5.00pm\n\n\n\nLast entry at 4.45pm\n\n\n\nClosed on 24\, 25\, & 26 December\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility: \n\n\n\nPlease contact the friendly team at the museum by telephone (01865 272 950) or email (foh@oum.ox.ac.uk) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGallery\n\n\n\nClick images to expand \n\n\n\n\nBattery Ores\n\n\n\nBismuth\n\n\n\nCobalt\n\n\n\nDysprosium\n\n\n\nHalite\n\n\n\nREEs\n\n\n\n\nImage credit: Sarah Bell
