Most of our libraries and library-managed spaces will be open during the summer with revised hours. We will be monitoring demand in each location throughout this period, as well as in response to the refurbishment works at Mile End Library.
Desk booking and check-incontinues in all libraries and library-managed spaces to help manage occupancy levels and support social distancing; up to date information on spaces and their opening times are on the Library Services opening hours page.
Senate House Library is open during the summer; pre-booked study slots are required to stay and study, as well as browse and borrow from the collections. Check the Senate House Visiting the Library page to get up to date information and book a study slot.
The British Library Reading Rooms at St Pancras have reopened. Opening times vary and you need to pre-book; check the British Library opening hours page for up to date information.
