Penned and Printed Exhibition Title

Showcasing items from Durham University’s Archives and Special Collections, this exhibition explores themes of medical progress, local stories of crime and punishment, and the journey to women’s suffrage.

These rarely displayed collections bring together the spectacular with the humble, the local with the national, and ideas which would change the world, with small details of the long forgotten.

Building closure - upcoming dates

Due to extensive roofing works at Palace Green Library, there will be times when we have to close the building to visitors between summer 2024 and spring 2025, with no access to our Penned and Printed exhibition.
