The UK's largest university library contains over 9 million books. Many famous people have studied within its walls: 5 kings, 40 Nobel Prize winners and 25 British prime ministers, as well as writers Oscar Wilde, C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. Sir Thomas Bodley built the first wing in 1602. Worth seeing: The Old Schools Quadrangle, a square at the entrance, The Divinity School, The Medieval Duke's Humfrey's Library, used in the Harry Potter films, The Radcliffe Camera, the first rotunda library built in Britain.

L'endroit est magnifique mais la visite avec audio guide est très limitée. On ne voit finalement pas grand chose (rien du tout, même!) de cette collection ahurissante de livres.... globalement décevant. Seule l'entrée a la divinity school vaut le coup.

La bibliothèque bodléienne, officiellement bibliothèque de Bodley est la plus prestigieuse des bibliothèques de l’université d'Oxford.

Les photos n'y sont pas autorisées et c'est tant mieux car du coup, on essaye de s'inprégner au maximum du souvenir que représente ce magnifique endroit ! C'est littéralement d'une beauté et d'une qualité à couper le souffle !
There are various guided tours, but you have to be served in advance to visit what you want and in the language suitable.
