Week 17, 20–25 April, the library will once again be running its Climate Week. A week dedicated to highlighting research on climate issues and encouraging a circular lifestyle. You’re welcome to swap clothes, seeds, cuttings and books. There will also be a lecture, an exhibition and more.

Swap instead of buying new

During the week, you can bring clothes you no longer wear, books you’ve already read, plant cuttings or seeds to share. Swap for something new, get inspired by others’ favourites, and let the things you no longer need find a new home.

  • Clothes swap
  • Plant cutting swap
  • Seed swap
  • Book swap

Share your best staycation tips

…and be inspired by others.

Share your best vegan recipe

…and win a cookbook.
