The Bodleian Libraries are undertaking a series of major projects to improve our facilities for supporting researchers, preserving our collections, and delivering services to readers. Such major projects may result in some temporary changes in services, but we are seeking to minimise disruption to readers as far as possible. For further information on the individual projects and the schedule of works, see below or contact reader.services@bodleian.ox.ac.uk.

Completed Projects
- New Bodleian (the Weston Library) At the end of July 2011, the New Bodleian Library closed its doors to readers after nearly 70 years of service.
