We heard there's some commotion happening in Glastonbury this weekend. Can only assume everyone's headed on down to the fascinating archaeological site of Glastonbury Lake Village, about which we recently found a series of early 1900s pamphlets in our collection!

While the Romans pumped cold water from aqueducts through the walls of their houses to keep them cool, all that excess moisture isn't great for books. Luckily for us, the Art Library has a nice modern air conditioning system. Pop in and get out of the heatwave this weekend!
