News
For 2 weeks from Monday 12 July, there may be noise disruption up to 1.30pm (rather than 11am) on the 1st floor refurbishment area. This will help us meet the programme timetable for the refurbishment works on the first floor. We regret any inconvenience to users and staff and will try and keep noise to a minimum. Please ask staff at the Information Hub if you would like to identify a quieter area in which to study.
