Qui si trova davvero di tutto su qualsiasi argomento. La struttura è imponente, la mostra permanente affascinante, da visitare!
Ryan WaggonerSettembre 16, 2017
Free admission. See the Magna Carta, original Shakespeare folios and handwritten Beatles lyrics. Casual cafe on the 2nd floor serving a variety of quaintly food.

The world's third largest library, offering itself as a visiting place for both the scholar and the laytourist. On display through summer 2012: "Writing Britain." Kristin Knox, The Clothes Whisperer

Inspiring exhibitions all year round, a great working place and a pleasant retreat for the curious. If you're into coffee don't miss out on Origin's great selection of espresso & filter coffees.

See the work of conservation and gain an insight into the techniques used to care for our collections on a ‘behind the scenes' tour of the Conservation studios!
Nick FrantzLuglio 6, 2018
One of the highlights of our visit was the Treasures Collection. Handwritten music, Gutenburg and King James Bibles, Shakespeare's First Folio and the Magna Carta, all in one place!
Shamsa AbdulrahmanFebbraio 16, 2016
Absolutely beautiful place to visit if u love libraries! Spend some time reading ❤ or have a bite in the cafe and enjoy looking around. So peaceful
Dersu F.Z.Ottobre 7, 2015
Un lugar para visitar en Londres, la exhibición de sus colecciones: la Carta Magna, trabajos de música, manuscritos de Leonardo da Vinci, letras originales de los Beatles, escritura China antigua etc

Plan to spend half your day here because once you get in, you'll want to spend hours and hours walking around and learning about different kinds of books/writers.
Wayne FordAgosto 1, 2011
Even if you smply visit the British Library for a coffee and pastry at the Peyton & Byrne cafe, its an inspiring space to be surounded by so many great texts. Leggi tutto

The King’s Library looks amazing. Loved the Treasures Gallery. Great giftshop and lots of coffeeshops. You could easily spend an entire day here.
BreeMaggio 7, 2017
You'll never regret spending an hour of your trip at this spectacular library. Jaw-dropping collection of books and historical texts.
Molotov CupcakeSettembre 23, 2020
Eine der größten Bibliotheken der Welt. Sehr schön, sehr ruhig. Kaffee ist ebenso gut. Wenn man hier ist, sollte man sich aber auch das Museum mit den handgeschriebenen Originalen ansehen.
Alex CurielDicembre 20, 2018
The national library of the UK. It has one of the largest collection of books in the world. Great place to study!
Carlos Zavala HydeAgosto 20, 2014
The British Library is the second largest library in the world: 14 million books and 150 million items.
Emily SkarbekMarzo 1, 2015
Amazing free, quick, and usually not crowded exhibit of the Magna Carta and other unique treasures.
Ashley GenevieveAgosto 19, 2014
As a librarian from the states, I was blown away. The exhibitions were wonderful and I've never seen so many books together in my life. Great experience.

A great place to study if you're bored with your uni's library. Electricity sockets available by some tables.
H RSettembre 25, 2014
You can sign up to the reading room. They hold lots of creative thematic exhibits such as the recent ones regarding comic books and, most recently, gothic literature.
Andrew SaffreyFebbraio 1, 2016
a palace of knowledge. very busy in the cafe during the week! free wifi allegedly, but seems to need registration or membership
The GuardianAprile 26, 2012
"Click to listen to Kristian Jensen, head of Arts and Humanities at the British Library, talk about the special collections at the British Library which make it so unique." Leggi tutto

A wonderful place to just hang out, we went to the comic exhibition which was fantastic.

The temporary exhibitions are always worth a look, no more so than the current Maps exhibition. Reasonably good for free wifi, but can be patchy. Love the quirky gift shop.
Love CamdenOttobre 20, 2010
There are two excellent cafes in the British Library: a small one outside at the front, and another at the back as you walk up the main stairs. Both make an excellent destination to meet for lunch.
berrybeansGennaio 2, 2015
It might not be the first choice on the sightseeing list for first-time London visitors but it's worth visiting. I like Gutenberg.
TProphet Febbraio 17, 2015
It is free and has an unbelievable collection of ancient and rare books on display. Don't miss it!
Danny UKLuglio 28, 2015
Lovely and peaceful, yet there is almost always a hive of activity with visitors working away on laptops.

Be sure to check out all their exhibits: as well as the current exhibition, go read the Magna Carta, check out the philately exhibition and sign up for a damn reader's pass and help improve the world Leggi tutto

Best place to get warm and use of the facilities without paying and you don't need to be a member also good to leave luggage for the day as long as its not a big suitcase

Free wifi, decent toilets and a great cafe. This is my temp office whenever I'm in London

Preregister online and order your books before you visit. Some are stored in Yorkshire and take 2 days.
Matt ShortMarzo 2, 2019
Always nice to look around here and the coffee shops are a great place to have a think.
Bianca NgAgosto 28, 2016
Amazing collection of the history of print. As a designer who is obsessed with print and typography, I felt goosebumps!
Jeanette MaylandOttobre 6, 2019
Outside a horrendous building but inside the kind of environment that makes you want to go back to school
Versha SharmaOttobre 19, 2011
The Treasures Room is incredible: handwritten Beatles lyrics on the back of bday cards and envelopes, artifacts from Austen, Shakespeare, a Gutenberg Bible, Magna Carta and more...heaven!!!
Roxana H.Settembre 4, 2023
Impresionante. Una de las bibliotecas más grandes y mejor organizadas del mundo. Tienen tours gratuitos.

The British Library has a cash machine and a postbox. Both are on the lower ground floor; last collection from the postbox is 4pm Mon-Fri.

Se possível visite a parte sobre conservação de livros antigos. É incrível!
Hani EFebbraio 12, 2016
The exhibits are pretty cool. The bookshop is disappointing. The Alice in Wonderland exhibit was fun!
Robert EMarzo 11, 2018
So cool to see all the old books, including a 1st edition Gutenberg Bible and a 3rd century New Testament piece
Riz ANovembre 7, 2013
Excellent place for a meetup is at the cafe near the back as your walk up the stairs.
Time Out LondonFebbraio 23, 2012
The collection is unmatched (150 million items and counting), and the reading rooms (open only to cardholders) are so popular that regular users are now complaining that they can't find a seat. Leggi tutto

It's such a shame on the weekends it closes at 5 and they hustle you out before then. Best place to read in London

The social science and science reading rooms get full early. Try one of the other rooms. Also, order any books you need before going to the library. It takes at least 70 minutes for them to arrive.
Rachel RothNovembre 24, 2017
Book well in advance for the Harry Potter exhibit...
