Lack of space in North Reading Room!


Over the past few weeks, the North Reading Room has been exceptionally busy and full! To gain a little more space, we have removed 10 terminals from the room, to allow for the use of laptops. Extra sockets have also been placed under the main tables so that more users can use their own laptops at these tables. 

There are also plans to extend the supply to the first gallery, so that laptops can also be used in this area.

Counting our readers


The Library has installed two reader counters in the main hall to count the number of readers who visit the reading rooms daily. These counters can give us a clear picture of the use made of the reading rooms, and the busiest periods during the day or week, and this is beneficial as it helps us to ensure that we have adequate staff available at the busiest times.
