Abstract
Looks at how Haworth Tompkins refurbished and rationalised the London Library. The renovation covered the whole library, including all the services, its stacks, the new Duchess building, the addition of three new floors of book stacks and the upgrading of the art reading room, which is at the core of the scheme. Remodelling of the existing lightwell, improved circulation, an enlarged lift and the creation of a single central staircase were also required.
