From America, England, Europe and even Antarctica, many of the books held in Special Collections have travelled far and wide to get here.
This exhibition showcases just how far some of these books have come, based on the inscriptions and bookplates found inside their covers.
This exhibition is both physical and virtual. By visiting https://goo.gl/wvbbdq you can explore the map of all the books featured in the exhibition and many more.
