We are working on reopening

The Library Service is working towards reopening the physical library sites. 

The Trust is currently undertaking risk assessments of the library spaces for reopening and once this has been completed, action plans will be produced to put in place all the measures necessary to allow us to safely welcome our users back.

We are still providing all of our services remotely, so if you need a book or journal article, a literature search, training or anything else please contact us and we will endeavour to help.

We hope to see you soon.
