SUMMARY:In Conversation: Muslim\, Actually\, with Tawseef Khan
DESCRIPTION:Muslim\, Actually: How We Get Islam Wrong and Why it Matters\, with Tawseef Khan\n7pm-8pm\, Thursday 3rd July 2025\nJoin Tawseef Khan for a discussion of his first non-fiction book Muslim\, Actually\, in which he looks at the Islamophobia persistent in some segments of Western society\, from its ancient origins and development\, to how it operates and manifests today. Talking to Andrea Russell\, Warden at Gladstone’s Library\, Tawseef will look to dismantle the essential stereotypes that Islamophobia is constructed around. How have Tawseef’s reflections on how the discourse on Islamophobia (and his attitudes towards it) changed since writing and publishing the book? What does he feel are the future prospects of the West embracing its Muslim communities unconditionally? And finally\, where does the conversation go from here? \nTawseef Khan is a qualified immigration solicitor and holds a doctoral degree from the University of Liverpool\, where he examined the fairness of the British asylum system. He is also a graduate of the creative writing programme at the University of East Anglia\, where he received the Seth Donaldson Memorial Bursary. His fiction has appeared in Lighthouse and Test Signal: a Northern anthology; his non-fiction in the New York Times\, The Face and Hyphen. His debut non-fiction book Muslim\, Actually was published by Atlantic in 2021. He lives in Manchester.

SUMMARY:July 2025 - Tuesday Glimpse
DESCRIPTION:Mini-tour and Glimpse of the Reading Rooms \nAre you curious about the origins of Gladstone’s Library? Would you like a sneak peek at the famous Reading Rooms? \nBuilt more than a century ago\, Gladstone’s Library is one of the hidden gems of North Wales. While the Library is open to day visitors who wish to enjoy spending time in the grounds of this Victorian Gothic landmark\, the Reading Rooms are silent study spaces usually only accessible to registered Readers or residential guests staying here overnight. \nSteeped in local and national history\, this is the UK’s only Prime Ministerial library and a rare example of a residential library. Known originally as St. Deiniol’s Library\, it was renamed in 2010 to reflect its connections with founder and four-times Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone. \nBy booking onto a Glimpse\, you will be given a talk about the building\, its purpose\, its links to UK and world affairs and the ways in which it has evolved through time. You will also be able to peep inside the Reading Rooms\, where researchers\, writers and scholars of all kinds come to make use of the extensive collections and to work in silence. \nAll Glimpses last approximately 30 minutes.
