Location from Lent Term

The Seeley Library has moved into a dedicated and newly designed space within the University Library, until work on the Stirling Building is completed.

From 21 January 2025, the Seeley Library will operate from inside the University Library on West Road. The space runs alongside the Main Reading Room on the first floor (step-free access is available). This includes what some people may know as the West Room and some additional space, which was specially renovated and designed to house the Seeley Library.
