INFORMATION College Record 2024 Please submit your news and details of any awards or publications for inclusion in the 2024 College Record here: https://www.queens.ox.ac.uk/update-details-sharenews/. Alternatively, you can send this information by post to the Old Members’ Office in College. The deadline for entries is 1 August 2024. Information You are also invited to submit obituaries of Old Members. Please send these to the Old Members’ Office. Visiting the College If you are an Old Member visiting Oxford you are very welcome to visit Queen’s during your stay. Enter the College via the High Street and report to the Porters’ Lodge. Please note that with the new Porter’s Lodge we now have a level-access entrance just along from the main wooden door on the High Street. Mention that you are an Old Member wishing to visit and say if this visit has been pre-arranged with the Old Members’ Office. The Porters will need to check your Old Member credentials, so you can either show your University of Oxford Alumni Card (‘My Oxford’ card) or answer a couple of questions so the Porters can locate you on their database. Do I need to book my visit? You do not have to pre-arrange a visit, but we do encourage it, so we can check there are no restrictions on the areas you want to see. You can bring friends or family with you, including children, but if you are a group of six or more, let us know in advance, if you can. Generally Old Members are able to walk around the cloisters, quads, gardens, and Chapel and Hall, if the spaces are not being used for other purposes. The Lodge Porters will advise on which areas are not accessible. You will need to let us know in advance if you would like to look around the Library. The Library has different visiting times to the main College – as visits can only take place when the Library is staffed – and this varies depending on whether you plan to visit during term, vacation time, or at a weekend. The Library is also sometimes closed for events. Read more about Library access on the Library’s web page. When are you open? The College is generally open to Old Member visitors most of the year, with the exception of the two-week closure period over the Christmas vacation and on occasions where there are large events taking place in College, such as the College College Record 2023 | The Queen’s College 133
