• The amount of seating available in the Library has been adjusted to meet the requirements of the "purple badge" standard and thus has been reduced: partitions have been constructed and suitable seating has been prepared in the various reading rooms. These seats are numbered
The visit reservation system will automatically allocate you a numbered seat. All visitors will be required to sit in their allocated seats; it will not be possible to sit elsewhere.
• The public computer area adjacent to the Library entrance, as well as the one in the Music Room, will be closed. Some of the public computers in the reopened reading rooms will be available for use.
