You can learn about the modern library offer, and how you can access it from all over the world. We'll also tell you about our resident ghosts and how they got here too!
All but one area of the tour is accessible to wheelchair users, and you can join the library while you're here (or resurrect your account if you haven't been to us in a while). This is your library, and it's here for everyone - come in and know us better.
