All collections available again
The unplanned maintenance in the staff-only storage area in North Court is now complete.
Staff can now access this area again to fetch material for you in the usual way. You can search iDiscover and request material in advance of visiting the library.
Thank you for your patience while we resolved this issue.

New Special Collections Reading Room
The current Rare Books Reading Room will become a new Special Collections Reading Room for manuscripts, archives and rare printed materials on the Library’s principal (first) floor, which Giles Gilbert Scott designed to be the heart of the Library. This reading room will provide in-person services for users of our Special Collections (alongside the existing Maps Reading Room).
While the works are taking place, users of Special Collections will access in-person services in the current Manuscripts Reading Room. Once the works and other preparations have been completed, services will move to the combined Special Collections Reading Room on Tuesday 17 February.
Please note the we will be closed to readers for Manuscripts and Rare Books on Monday 16 February. We apologise for the inconvenience.
