Building Connections: Phase One Building Works Update

The New Room is now complete.

We are delighted to invite our members to view the New Room. The New Room is a permanent, dedicated space for programming at The London Library. It will host events for members, secondary school groups and community partners, allowing us to make our extensive collection and resources more widely available and increasing the Library’s charitable impact.

Drop-in times:

Tuesday 9 June, 10.00 am - 12 noon
Friday 12 June, 12 noon - 2.00 pm

No need to book, please do just turn up and we hope to see as many of you there as possible!
