Our community

Our communities are important to us.

Over the years we have built and been part of thriving communities across Cardiff University, locally, regionally, nationally and beyond.

We are always committed to building vibrant, innovative and engaging communities around our collections.

"It’s always genuinely fantastic to see books up close, especially ones as unusual as these."

We work closely with colleagues right across Cardiff University to develop and deliver workshops and engaging events aligned with the needs of research and teaching. Keep an eye on news and Twitter for details of forthcoming events.

Get in touch to discuss how we can work together to make our collections more relevant to you.

National collaboration

We are also proud to be active members of wider national networks including Archives Wales, WHELF Special Collections and GW4.

Over the years we have collaborated on a number of national projects including the innovative Cymru 1914: The Welsh Experience of the First World War.
