Our Library can be found on the first floor of the Cloister and its shelves are packed full of historic literary gems going back as far as the 15th century as well as modern theological texts.

All are welcome to explore the Library which is usually open Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10am to 4pm and also hosts a number of regular events.

It has a modern theology loan collection (£12 annual subscription for borrowing rights) and a historic collection (reference only) and study space is available in the library reading room.

The Library’s online catalogue features all our modern theological collection and a third of the historic library catalogue. You can browse the Library catalogue here.

The Historic Library also hosts a changing exhibition of material from the collections, open with normal library opening times.
