Old Road Campus Library
We're excited to announce that the Knowledge Centre Library has a new name. The library has now been renamed to the Old Road Campus Library (or ORCL for short), with some flashy new signage to match. If you've never visited the library before, now is the perfect time to come check us out. In line with this change, please note that our email address has also changed to: hcl-oldroadcampuslibrary@bodleian.ox.ac.uk
You can find us on the ground floor of the Old Road Campus Research Building. We are open Monday-Friday 8:30am-5pm. Further information is available on the Old Road Campus Library website.
