Monday 24th November – 8.00am – the Medical Library re-opens its doors.The majority of the redevelopment work is over, and we’re proud to welcome you into the library via the “normal” route: into the Clinical School and up the spiral staircase.

Congratulations to you all – you’ve survived the disruption of our move to the temporary issue desk and the noise of the building works. Thank you for your tolerance.

Factors beyond our control mean there’s been a last minute change of date for this disruption. THURSDAY 28TH AUGUST will be the noisy day in the library – particularly after 5.30pm
