Chetham's Library

Chetham's Library have created a series in which they have highlight some of the Library’s most interesting stuff, which as well as famous books and manuscripts includes furniture, paintings, and objects from the museum collection.

Limited space means that much of this material is not on permanent display, making this a rare opportunity to get a closer look at some of the jewels in the Library’s crown.

Alongside this collection they have also made available more digital resources, prints and photographs, printed books and ephemera and manuscripts.
