About Us What is Daily Info? • How to Advertise • History • Contact Us •
History Daily Information was founded and run for 40 years by John Rose. You can read why, in his words, here. Here is a picture of the first one (A4), from 28th September 1964. You can click on the image to enlarge it. The latest printed sheet can be downloaded here, but you will probably find it quicker, now that you're here, to browse our website, which contains everything in the printed sheet and more.
In addition to the printed sheet, over the years Daily Information has published many series of Oxford guides, calendars, maps, What's On brochures and a book of cartoons about Oxford by our resident artist, the late Mary Potter. Our current publications include an A2 Year Planner (produced every September and distributed free - email us and we will send you one); the weekly Pin-Up (events listings for Oxford), an excellent Map of Oxford By Day & Night (email us for your free sample copy - further copies 20p each), and some online calendars. Any of these can be downloaded as pdfs by following the links above. We also distribute posters, for a modest fee, to our sheet display sites around Oxford. Click here to find out more. Current staff John Rose died in December 2004, but we are carrying on much in his spirit. We try to make our site and sheet as useful, entertaining and as free from hype as possible. We are always interested in comments and suggestions for improvement - let us know by email or contact us by other means.

Francis King, Administrator, St Michael at the North Gate (Oxford City Church) "This site is the most user friendly web site I've ever come across. It's so fluently
designed, it really doesn't feel like a website at all. More like talking to somebody knowledgeable who responds instantly
and effectively to your questions. It's quite eerie really, 'cos it's just so far from the normal frustrating 'finding
out stuff and trying to print it in coherent format' uphill struggle of most listings sites. It's got:
