General Guidelines

Readers are asked to follow some general guidelines when using the Library. They are requested to put bags in the lockers provided before coming into the Reference area, and to sign the Readers Register at the Reference Desks each day.

Reference

The General Reference area is on the Ground Floor. Here readers can request materials from the publications, maps, music, and archives and manuscripts collections.

Access to the Pictorial collections is from the First Floor where there is an enquiry desk.

Being a research collection most resources are housed in closed stacks and not available for browsing. Staff at the Reference Desks are happy to show readers how to locate and order material through the catalogues and to advise on resources.
