It's that festive time of year again and rounding off this
semester it really has been an exceptional time of late here in Archives and
Special Collections. Over the past semester, we have settled into our new home
and premises here at the Hardiman Building; wonderful new collections have
arrived into our strong-rooms, more have been catalogued and made accessible;
it has been our pleasure to have you with us for Open Days, tours, Culture
Night, exhibitions and launches, guest talks and more. We have been delighted
to welcome so many new users to our Reading Room and indeed to welcome back all
our regular users and friends!
We hope all research and projects have gone well
and not too many sleepless nights were had ahead of ahead of exams.
Our semester is winding to a close this week and already a
new start is on the horizon so to all friends of the Archives and Special
Collections, to users new and not so new, to all University staff and students
and to those who visit us from afar, we wish you a very festive, enjoyable and
safe Christmas and look forward to seeing you all here at the Hardiman Building
in 2014.
As a final piece from our collections for this year here is
an image from the Lyric Theatre Belfast production of 'The Nativity'. The
production was a staging of the version written by Lady Augusta Gregory,
organised and directed by Mary O'Malley prior to the formation of the Lyric
Players Theatre.
