Frenchay Library Level 5 redevelopment update

Refurbishment works are currently taking place on Level 5 of the library. Due to unforeseen delays, we now expect the area to reopen towards the end of May.

During this time, Levels 2, 3 and 4 will remain open as usual.  The library team will be on hand to provide support as normal.

Alternative study spaces are available across campus, including The Works, The Forum, Synapse, S Block Study Lounge and The Hive.

The new layout will provide a wider range of study spaces, including a new Library Lounge with microwaves and hot water, and will increase the number of high quality accessible study spaces.

A fetch and carry service will be available to access books while Level 5 is closed. Please place a reservation as usual and your book will be available from 14:30 on the shelves on Level 2.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience while these improvements are completed.
