Want to store things securely? We loan padlocks, for use with the lockers situated behind the main building reception desk. This is the only item of our equipment that you can take out of the library and borrow for longer than a day.

Lumie desk lamp.

 

We have a Lumie Daylight Desk Lamp you can borrow. Using this desk lamp will provide you with the bright light your body needs during the dark winter months. It can help boost your energy levels, put you in a better mood and make you feel more awake. It is particularly beneficial for those that suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder).

 

 

 

We also have a prayer mat. Staff can advise on the best area in the library to go to use it.
