As a first-time visitor to the library, it may help to know our opening hours and how to find us.

If you’re eligible to join the library you’ll need to register, once you’ve completed the registration form to collect your card please come between 10am – 1pm, Monday to Friday, or 1pm – 4.30pm Saturday phone/email us to discuss alternative arrangements.

Please note that staff and students with the University of Cambridge who have a university ID card will not need to fill in the registration form, as their details will already be in our system. They should skip filling in the registration form and simply come to the library between, 10am – 1pm, Monday to Friday, or 1pm – 4.30pm Saturday to complete their registration.
