Main Library

I had a great experience here. This place is truly worth a visit. I will definitely come back!!!

Gross toilets, needs to have more radiators. But very big. Lots of books and seats. Would prefer more individual work spaces though

Not actually a library as it can not be borrowing books there. All are vintage old books sitting in elegant wooden bookshelves. Worth travelling as you re a book lover or not. Some small displays of old writings and books in glass. There are some desks and chairs which putting into the bookcase forest for everyone to read or study. Old church glasses surrounded the whole building makes it an elegant beauty in the city.

The library is excellent in its service and the diversity of the books but the toilets are poorly maintained despite being one of the most important buildings in the university. It seems like there is no regular cleaning and the toilet paper is always scattered on the floor (which could be the students' fault). Would be an excellent place if this matter is taken care of.

Good study place with plenty of PC available for students to use. The lounge is also big and spacious with microwaves and a small café.

My biggest problem about the Main Library is the bathrooms. They are very poorly managed and this can be seen in many areas such as mould growing on the walls/under the hand dryers, bad smell permeating through the bathroom, lack of soap in soap dispensers, etc. I hope the University can take action to make these public facilities more comfortable to use.

A really pretty peice of art. The architecture amazed me and makes you want to learn more about the city and its history. Wheelchair accessible and such friendly service. The gift shop is small but filled with the most popular books and unique trinkets for the town. The cafe had a good selection and plenty of seating places. It took us around an hour to visit and made the day really enjoyable as its close to the town center and there are lots of things to do nearby; axe throwing, cinema, plenty of cafes and restaurants. Brilliant place to get some good photos and spend quality time with a loved one.

Great library, very big and beautiful, staff are always lovely. There is a littering issue outside, however it’s no one’s fault but those who choose to litter sadly. What a shame it ruins the beautiful campus.
