A Gift That Keeps Giving
The Oxford Literary Festival was held in April, with St Cross College purposed as the event’s ‘green room’. As a thank you, festival organizers donated a large collection of books to our College library from many of the talented authors who took part.
The Master, Fellows and staff of St Cross would like to extend our deep appreciation to the Oxford Literary Festival for including our College in this special annual event, as well as the authors and Blackwells for donating signed copies of several books to the Library. We look forward to next year’s festival.
Books are a gift you can open again and again.
As such, the festival’s generous gifts to our library will continue to be opened for years to come.
