At the beginning of this year, I had the privilege of photographing Peter de Voogd, professor emeritus of English Literature, in his study in Utrecht. He was about to donate a large part of his collection of and about Laurence Sterne to the Special Collections of the Utrecht University Library.

My colleague Conny van Bezu interviewed him:

Dirty fingers and entertained brains at the University Library

On Thursday 9 October, students and staff visited the festival Night at the Library in the University Library City Centre. They listened to lectures on eco-sexuality and activism, took part in workshops, enjoyed delicious Future Food snacks and watched the documentary The Recycle Surfari.

The University Library has decided not to renew its licence for access to the Web of Science citation database (including Journal Citation Reports). Discontinuing Web of Science is a logical step that fits in with the UU vision on Open Science.

"After reading it, I really wanted to talk to someone"

Conny van Bezu and I interviewed our colleague Eline Gielen for the Utrecht University website about reading “Birnam Wood” and her participation in the One Book One Campus reading event. Afterwards, I took a few portraits of Eline in the Botanical Gardens.

As of today, the doors of the new university library building of the University of Amsterdam are open. It is located in the city centre in the historic buildings of the former Binnengasthuis hospital.

Watch the time lapse video (2019-2025). See the (literal!) glass ceiling above the former square and note that the construction materials had to be transported to the site by (battery-powered) boat.

A true thriller for students and staff 🙀 👻

This year, One Book One Campus reads ‘Birnam Wood’ by Booker Prize winner Eleanor Catton. A page-turning eco-thriller about what happens when heartfelt principles meet obscene wealth. Read the novel this summer, join the conversation this autumn.
