St Pancras planned closures

Updated 18 July 2024

Due to planned electrical work the Library will now be closed on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 July, and there will be limited collection item delivery, as well as no Wi-Fi at the Library after 16.00 on Friday 19 July. On Monday 22 July the Library will open as normal, with Wi-Fi restored at 10.00, and our exhibition galleries opening at 12.30.

We aim to undertake this essential work as quickly as possible to reduce any further impact this may have on you. It’s possible, however, that there may be additional disruption to services that we can’t anticipate, including to the return of full services on Monday 22 July. Please keep an eye on our social media channels and for signage onsite in case anything changes on the day.

Please see details below, we’re very sorry for any inconvenience.
