Do you want to bring your research to life, but you’re not sure how? Come along to our tour of the Materials Room which is open to all! We will: 

• Use objects to generate your creative ideas 
• Find out more about the Special Collections that we have here at Middlesex University 
• Touch, handle and learn from objects that you’d normally only see on display in a museum 

This session will introduce you to items from each of the ten Special Collections that are held at the Sheppard Library, and explain how you can access and browse the items. Archive material provides endless inspiration and can give your creative and academic research another dimension. Let us know if you have any access requirements. Please arrive on time, with clean dry hands. If you have any questions, please email the librarian Irene directly at i.tortorella@mdx.ac.uk
