Thanks, Oscar, very glad to be able to accommodate the shoot, and we love the results. I hope you’re able to get back to visiting other Libraries soon!
Before the current instructions confined us to quarters, we were happy to welcome international photographer of libraries (among much else), Oscar de Wit. Oscar came to us for an early morning shoot, before our tours schedule began, and came away with stunning images such as the small sample here. Do head over to his pages to see more of Chetham’s, and of many other fascinating libraries. Since we can’t welcome you in person at the moment, we hope these will interest you in seeing the Library for yourself when we’re allowed out!
