A selection of books on the topic of winter wellbeing in the Social Science Library

It can be a rather cold and gloomy time of year. Why not take a study break and browse the Winter Wellbeing book display in the Social Science Library?

This display was created by members of the SSL team using books from the Collections Storage Facility and covers everything from winter recipes, to the concept of Hygge to winter themed writing anthologies. This display can be found near the issue desk in the Social Science Library.

These books are for use in the library only and cannot be borrowed. Feel free to use them while visiting the SSL but please remember to return them to the display once you are finished using them.
