CILIP members
CILIP
members are entitled to a Reader Pass upon proof of membership
and proof of identity.
The focus for studies in librarianship is the Humanities
Reading Room, where open access material, including a display
of the latest Librarianship
& Information Science journals can be found.
You can apply for a Reader Pass in person or in advance, by post. Our Reader Registration office is open Monday to Saturday except for seasonal closures. Note that our Reading Rooms opening hours are different to those of our Reader Registration office.
