St Luke's Library (Haighton) Opening Hours & Access

Refurbishment at St Luke’s library

The Library team are getting St Luke’s library ready for an exciting revamp over the summer, so you may experience some changes and possible disruption there this term.

St Luke’s library will be closing from Friday 31 May for the work to take place, reopening for the start of term in September. You’ll still be able to access all the library resources during this time. Your online library search remains available as usual, and a fetch and carry service over the summer means you can still access books and journals being stored. Look out for more information on how to do that, coming soon. Thank you to everyone who commented in the design engagement days last term – your feedback has been incorporated into the plans for your new library design.
