From the beginning of February 2009 the Library and Archive Reading Room will be closed on Wednesdays for a six month period to enable us to undertake a number of projects and to deal with a back-log of cataloguing, which will enable us to improve our service. During this period there will be no late night opening. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
