The Library plays a key part in providing excellent information services that support the research needs of its members. As a Graduate Trainee Librarian, you will be responsible for providing and supporting a range of reader services to a professional standard. At the same time, you will be obtaining experience and training in a wide variety of library duties. This is a fixed term contract until mid-August 2023 and you will be reporting to the Librarian and Keeper of Manuscripts. Please go to the Inn’s website for more information.

The Library Move

The Library, which has been housed on the fifth floor at 10 Fetter Lane for the duration of Project Pegasus, will close to users on Friday 4 February 2022 at 5.00pm to allow for the relocation of the collections to the permanent building.

We anticipate that the removal and re-installation of the Library will take approximately six weeks and we will be reopening our doors to users on the 16 March 2022. You can follow the progress of the move by signing up for email updates. In our first update the Librarian explains the scale of move.
