Public Lift
Currently the public lift in Central Library is out of order. Parts have been ordered for a repair and should be with us beginning of January. Whilst the lift is out of order, staff will assist as much as possible if members of the public require access to specific stock on other floors of the building. We apologise for the inconvenience caused. -
