There was a baffling array of events on this weekend for Cambridge Science Week - I picked two that were only marginally science-themed, both exhibitions in magnificent old in college libraries. Christ's College Library had a lovely display of Victorian travel and collectors' papers, photos, journals etc while St John's Library focussed on explorations by alumnae of the college (John Dee popped up again!). I loved these fold-out catalogues built into the ends of the shelf cabinets in St Johns library, each book painstakingly listed in fading brown ink.
