Silent piano
The Bodleian Health Care Libraries have acquired an electronic piano, generously donated by the former Music Faculty Library. It’s now available 24/7 in the Cairns Library at the John Radcliffe Hospital Academic Centre for readers to play. It doesn’t matter if you’re the next Mozart or a complete beginner, you’re warmly encouraged to take a break, plug in the headphones, and play some music, without disturbing those around you.
Examination couches
The Cairns Library at the John Radcliffe Hospital Academic Centre has two examination couches, which medical students and other members of the University can use for training. Email hcl-enquiries@bodleian.ox.ac.uk for more info, or ask at the library help desk.
