Temporary Closure of Asian and African Studies Reading Room, Friday 2nd - Mon 5th November 2007

An announcement from BL Management:

TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF THE BRITISH LIBRARY’S ASIAN AND AFRICAN STUDIES READING ROOM, FRIDAY 2 TO MONDAY 5 NOVEMBER 2007

We regret that the Asian and African Studies reading room will be closed from Friday 2 November to Monday 5 November during essential building work. Some of the collections normally consulted in the Asian and African Studies reading room may be accessible in other reading rooms, but we strongly recommend that you plan your research to avoid these dates as it will be a reduced service. Asian and African Studies staff will be on duty in the Rare Books and Music reading room until 5pm to answer enquiries.

From the beginning of October, more details will be available on our website at http://www.bl.uk/services/reading/asiaafricarr.html

We apologise for the inconvenience. The closure period has been kept to a minimum.
