Description
If you have visited Frenchay Library lately, you might have noticed we have made some improvements.
We have improved accessibility and added over 200 study spaces, with levels 2, 3 & 4 refurbished and remodelled. New features include easier access to accessible toilets, open collaboration spaces, traditional desks, high tables, rising desks and comfy sofas.
We will be celebrating these changes with an event for you to give you thoughts and feedback, as well as a chance to win library and study related prizes.
How to attend
This event will be taking place in our new study area on Level 2 of Frenchay Library. Please visit the helpdesk if you are unsure and staff will direct you to the event.
