5/ 5

Great cafe greets you upon entry with very tempting cakes. Have regularly attended free exhibitions since arriving in Oxford and have every intention of being a regular visitor. Have seen many ancient texts, original letters from famous authors and suffragette history. Have booked my tickets for the Tolkien exhibition. Love it!

Have been here twice now but on this occasion the museum was closed because they didn't have any staff! The cafe was a shambles! It clearly says "Loose Leaf" tea (£2) but we were given a tea bag in a cup. When I question it I was told it was loose leaf. I couldn't be bothered to argue. They also didn't have any large coffee cups so I was given a paper cup for my coffee which was also awful. £4.50 for a tea bag and a paper cup - a joke!

4/ 5

Like the Weston library which has some interesting exhibitions. During my visit there was an exhibition about Robert Burton’s book “The Anatomy of Melancholy”, which was the first attempt in the modern western world to understand and categorise causes of melancholy or depression. There was another exhibition about the North Sea crossings, displaying interesting maps and illuminated manuscripts related to British-Dutch/Belgium trade and relations.

Modern, spacious, usually quite busy, feels a little like a government office than an Oxford library

5/ 5

I LOVE the Weston Library. The exhibitions they have are always full of variety and beautifully done, and sometimes there are activities / exhibits in the entrance hall. The sop is great for picking up a little gift too. If you're a student I recommend the libraries for study, they are really beautiful. - and keeping an eye out for activities for mental health week, I got to do a yoga session in the hall once! It's also one of my favourite spots to have a coffee in Oxford - being in such a big open space and having the huge glass windows to look at the Sheldonian Heads is amazing.

Fantastic exposition, with free admission. Had a lovely time wandering around, they have a nice quiet cafe and very modern, secure facilities. Would happily visit again to view any new expositions :)
