The Woburn Suite (rooms 22-23) is easy
to find on the Ground
Floor of the SOUTH
BLOCKof Senate
House (i.e. the section nearest the
British Museum).
The North and South Blocks of Senate
House are connected by
an open-sided arched walkway that also gives access west
to Malet Street and east
to Russell Square.
If you approach Senate House from
Russell Square, turn left when inside
the walkway to enter
the South Block; if approaching from Malet Street, turn right.
Once through the revolving door of the
South Wing, go
straight ahead past the Information Desk, keeping right,
to the back of the
hall. Ignoring the coffee bar, go through the swing door
on your right and you will find the Woburn rooms on your
left (they
are signposted).
This
programme has been made possible through the generous
sponsorship of an anonymous benefactor, the Antiquarian
Booksellers' Association, Educational Trust, and the
International Map Collectors’ Society
