We say goodbye to Hannah Shotton, our library assistant who has replaced Sui Jing Ly during her maternity leave. We have enjoyed working with Hannah and we wish her well for the future We say welcome back to Jing after her maternity leave. Jing has started working in the library again on 10th November. We also say good bye to our Clinical Librarian Ruth Muscat who is moving to the Royal Free Hospital Library.

Staff and postgraduate students who are members of the library and who work or study at ICH or GOS can obtain access to the library at any time during normal Institute opening hours, from 08.00 – 22.45, seven days a week. To access the library outside staffed hours, your photo-ID badge must be encoded at the ICH reception desk. This will only be done after you have registered to join the library. If you wish to stay in the library after 21.00, you must sign in at the ICH reception desk. If anyone has problem accessing the library after hours they need to be referred to the ICH Reception Desk where advice as to how they might obtain out of hours access in the future will be given. If someone has left something in The Library, Reception staff can escort them to retrieve their property.
