The Women’s Library is seeking a new home
On Wednesday 14 March, London Metropolitan University’s Board of Governors announced that they will be seeking a new home, custodian or sponsor of The Women’s Library Collections.

If a new home is not found by the end of December 2012, the Library will move to opening hours of one day per week for a period of three years, with a further review at the end of that period. The Library and its supporters are campaigning to ensure the best possible outcome for this outstanding national resource.

We will keep you informed about developments as they progress on our campaign page


If you have questions or queries, or any suggestions of potential custodians, please get in touch: moreinfo@thewomenslibrary.ac.uk


The Women's Library is a cultural centre housing the most extensive collection of women's history in the UK. The collections include books, pamphlets, periodicals, zines, artist books, audio-visuals, personal and organisational papers, objects, textiles and visual materials.  You can visit our Reading Room to research and browse free of charge. To identify relevant materials search online
