Digital Galleries
Senate House Library's digital galleries are expertly curated collections of star items from our holdings. These were created in connections with exhibitions, events and displays.
The Digital Galleries only contain a very small number of SHL's Digital Collections: on this page, you will aso find links to our digitised Shakespeare First Folios, and to our Digital Collections Portal.
