As a result of building work in the university library many of our rare and valuable collections will be inaccessible from December 2008 to August 2010. In September 2010 the library will re-open with improved archives stores and a new reading room.
Â
Arrangements have been made for access to a number of our most important and popular collections to continue during the library refurbishment.
Â
Details of the material and access arrangements are available from our Special Collections web pages.
