Please note that we have had to change the date when we will move the Issue Desk to the Information Desk area.

We will move the security gates and the service to the Information Desk on Wednesday 2nd July. From this date, the entrance and exit to the Library will be through an alternative door. This is located at the bottom of Eagle Tower Staircase (T-Block). If you are unsure where this is, there will be clearly marked signs directing you.

Please also note that there may be disruption within Eagle Library over the coming days, especially in the quiet study area at the back of the Library.

The high risk period previously advertised as 10th-20th June has now been changed to 17th-27th June.

During this period there will be a high potential of delays in accessing ALL Library hard copy stock and some closure possible within this period.

Any further changes will be posted on this blog and also on our Library home page (www.bolton.ac.uk/learning)

We can now confirm that Chadwick Library will close to all users on Thursday 31st July at 5pm. From this time onwards all services will be delivered from the Library at Eagle with potential disruptions as previously indicated.

It is the intention of the Library to stay open throughout the summer. However, disruption is inevitable and closure may be necessary at short notice most probably for health and safety reasons. We have identified times when the services we offer will be affected and closure a possibility, in order to give as much notice as possible.
   
Throughout the summer period, especially after the exams, there will always be a potential for delays in services – access to stock, delays in retrieving stock from the store – and disturbances. We apologise for any inconvenience.
