    Does anyone know what font is used to typeset the signage inside and around the Berkeley Library?

    Pics? You could try running it through WhatTheFont also.

    From what I remember, it's Akzidenz-Grotesk, or a similar grotesque on the outside.
    Post an image of what you're trying to identify.

    Thanks a lot Redukt, that's exactly what I suspected it to be. :)

    Moot point now perhaps, but here's a picture of what I was referring to

    pfm, I would have used that font finder thing, but I don't think the resolution of the image (or any other I could find) was high enough.

    Out of interest, is it the same font they use for the lecture theatre names on the Arts Building concourse?

    It is, as far as I can tell anyway.
