Special Collections

Housed in the Sheppard-Worlock Library the University Archives and Special Collections is home to over 75,000 books, manuscripts, journals, newsletters, magazines, and pamphlets. The collections date back to the Medieval period and include many landmark volumes in publishing history. The collection is used by Humanities staff and students alike in several fields, including English Literature and Creative Writing, History, Politics and TPRS. Special Collections is open to all staff and students, as well as external visitors and researchers.

Humanities Printing Press

Students in English Literature and Creative Writing have the opportunity to work with our replica printing press, based on the design of the original European printing presses from the fifteenth century, as well as a range of historical and modern printing equipment. This hands-on experience of printing is used to enhance their understanding of literature, authorship, publication, and reading.
