A UNIVERSITY library more than 400-years-old is set to get a £10 million upgrade after refurbishment work started. It is the third and final phase of work at St John’s College, with the Old Library and Laudian Library set for a range of upgrades. Work is expected to be finished by early 2023, and will include joinery, stonework, and electrical work. Timberwork will also be restored, including carvings, cartouches and heraldic shields.
