Join us to discover how Lancaster’s past connects with the histories of people from around the world. Travel through time as we explore Lancaster’s links with histories that span from the Roman Empire to the British Empire to the modern world. You’ll also have the chance to learn about the city’s ties with global stories relating to trade, commerce, culture, society, livelihoods and change.

Moreover, find out about the Library's Glocal (Global and Local) collection, community card membership and Black History Month events.

We will also reflect on how knowledge of the past is helping to effect change in the present especially in relation to anti-racism and decolonising the curriculum.
