Today is International Day of Families. We wanted to take a moment to highlight our Family Study Room.
The Family Study Room in the Library is a dedicated study space designed for students with children. Here you can work and study in a family-friendly, secure space alongside your children.

The space, located on level 2 of the Library, features a study area as well as a variety of comfortable furniture suitable for both adults and children, along with a selection of toys, books and small games.

Beautiful wall decorations from our Archives and Special Collections showcase illustrations from E.H. Shepard’s Winnie-the-Pooh. While the area is designed with students who have children up to 12 years old in mind, children of all ages are welcome.

You must register and have an induction before you can use the room, please follow the link below for more information on how to register.
