The British Library Centre for Conservation is a new state-of-the-art
addition to our building at St Pancras, in central London. It was
officially opened by HRH The Princess Royal on 10 October 2007.
The Centre provides purpose-built accommodation designed to meet the specific
requirements of its occupants. As well as a greatly improved working
environment for staff, the building offers the best possible conditions
for the conservation of books and for audio engineering. The facilities
and programmes take Conservation, Collection Care and the Sound
Archive out of the back room and into the public eye.
There is a free public exhibition and a programme of events
(including tours and seminars).
