About this event
Join us for a tour around The Forgotten Library exhibition exploring the personal book collection of Enriqueta Rylands, founder of The John Rylands Library. Led by curator Dr Elizabeth Gow, this tour offers a unique opportunity to see a fascinating and eclectic selection of books that were once kept in her home in Stretford, South Manchester, offering a fresh insight into her life as a passionate reader and dedicated collector. No need to book. The tour is free and drop in. Please meet on the ground floor.

If this is your kind of night, these are other ways in: a collection this venue belongs to, traditions it works in, and similar talks still playing in Manchester this week.
This venue’s world
This venue sits in the collection, not this one title.
Traditions this room works in
Tags on the venue. Other Manchester rooms carry the same lineage. Not a claim that this film invented the tradition.
A different kind of night
Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
