A beautiful quiet space in the noisy over populated metropolis that is London. Make sure you're a member prior to attending. I fancied a laugh and picked up 'The Curse of Dutch Courage' book by comic Lazza Ogden. I was shushed about twenty times within the first hour of reading as it was laugh out loud funny. Well worth a read people (Currently £10.99 on Amazon I think) I also recommend the tea served. Simply divine. Great visit, its like a trip back in time with its chic decor. So much variety of book to choose from. I will be back & have been.

A beautiful space in central london, so much literature history contained in one building!!! Founded in 1841 by Thomas Carlyle as an alternative to the library in the British Museum. They have a huge range of books, private members library although they do run tours. Wondering the stacks and getting lost is half the fun. Praises can not be sung loud enough about the staff just utterly lovely!

This is a member library - so not for tourists, but if you live in the UK I really recommend to join. It is a magical place for research, with extensive multi-lingual collections spanning over one million books. If you’re self-employed, it’s a wonderful place to work from. As a London local, my only regret is not signing up sooner.

The most excellent library in all of London, and so perhaps the country. This place is like a second home. The level of service that one receives for the price of membership is incredible. I would be happy to pay twice the price that I do. It is an excellent place to work, to read, to relax, etc. The collection is very interesting and one always comes away with books far more useful than could have reasonably been expected. It's possible to keep books for basically an unlimited amount of time, so long as nobody else request them. The staff go above and beyond to do their jobs, and uncommonly in the modern day they use common sense in all things rather than referring to 'policy'. I would recommend anyone involved in any kind of academia in London take up a membership. My only suggestion for improvement is to extend the opening hours. Currently there is a very strange policy where one has to check in advance the opening hours on Wednesdays. I only really go on Mondays and Tuesdays, when the library is open until 21:00. On other days, it closes at 17:30, which means coming out of the serene library into rush hour in central London. Even being open until 18:30 or 19:00 would be immensely better for me. However I understand that (like everything) the library is finding ways to cut running costs so that I understand that this may not...

The London Library is not only a beautiful space filled with natural light but also an ideal environment for work and leisurely reading. With its vast collection of books readily accessible on the shelves, the library fosters a wonderful sense of discovery for any member who walks through its doors.

A few months into my membership, I took part in an induction hosted by a staff member named Rohini. Her professionalism and friendly demeanour significantly enhanced my experience. Rohini made me feel not only welcomed but valued, effortlessly embodying the library’s inviting atmosphere. This induction provided deeper insights into lesser-known sections of the library and solidified the warm reception I’ve consistently received from both the staff and fellow members.

For anyone considering joining, know that the London Library is a welcoming haven that encourages exploration without the slightest hint of intimidation. A heartfelt thank you to Rohini for making my induction experience...

I recently visited the [Library Name], and it was a delightful experience! The atmosphere was peaceful and inviting, making it a perfect place to study and read. The layout of the library is well-organized, with clear signs that help you find what you're looking for.I was impressed by the vast selection of books across various genres. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing recommendations and assisting me in locating some specific titles. I also loved the cozy reading nooks scattered throughout the library, which made it easy to get lost in a good book.Overall, my visit to [Library Name] was wonderful, and I can't wait to return. It's a fantastic resource for the community, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet place to...
