We also visited the Oxford University Library, one of the oldest libraries in Europe. Oxford University Library is one of the most well-stocked libraries because every book published in the UK is available in one volume. It is said that the library of Oxford University has strict collection management. It can only be read, not borrowed, and even the king can not make an exception. That's enough. The area actually consists of three major libraries, including the old Bodley Library, the Redcliffe Library and the new Bodley Library. Look at the old reading room outdoor view of the library called the Redcliffe Arch on Google Maps. The round building, built in 1749, became one of the landmarks of Oxford with its beautiful Baroque architecture. In front of this arch building is a tall church bell tower, which is also one of the landmarks of Oxford. It is called St. Mary's Church. It is the Cathedral of Oxford University. It has a history of nearly a thousand years. Its architecture is magnificent and magnificent. Then we went to the conference room in the old Bodley Library. The tall interior roof is decorated with the family emblems of noble families associated with Oxford University. Although we do not know these family emblems, the roof decoration is also very distinctive. Finally, we enter the new Bodley Library, which belongs to modern architecture. In the spacious and bright hall, we can see the tall bookshelves on the second floor of the library. The neat stacking of all kinds of books gives us a kind of sacred feeling. Perhaps only when we come here can we really realize the implication of "books are the ladder of human progress". There is a cafe in the lobby on the first floor of the library, where many people sit and rest, and others copy things. The New Bodley Library has an exhibition hall, which displays precious collections of which the library is proud. Among these collections are books written in gold letters in the ninth century, works by penicillin inventors, and a "biography of martyrs" text from Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty in China. In places like the Oxford University Library, of course, there are many manuscripts and books of the famous book Alice in Wonderland. Alice in Wonderland is the work of Charles Ludwig Dodgson, the father of modern fairy tales by British writers. Since its publication in 1865, this fairy tale has been loved by readers of different ages all over the world and has been translated into at least 125 languages. It is said that its popularity is second only to that of the Bible and Shakespeare. With the translation of the children, we know more about the exhibits in front of us. There is also a picture of Aung San Suu Kyi in the library. She studied in Oxford in the 1960s and won the honorary doctorate title of Oxford University at the beginning of this century.
