venue description
The British Library is not only the national library of the United Kingdom but also one of the world’s greatest academic institutions. Opened in 1998, the library is now hailed as a great triumph of design and technology as well as one of the greatest repositories of library materials which include over 150 million items, with some material dating from 3000 years ago.
Next to St Pancras International with the new Eurostar terminal and within easy walking distance of Euston, King’s Cross railway stations and six tube lines, the British Library is at the centre of the UK and European transportation network.
The British Library’s state of the art Conference Centre has its own private entrance from the Piazza and offers exceptional and flexible facilities for conferences, meetings, product launches, lectures, private screenings and media events. An impressive staircase leads from the manned reception area with dedicated cloakroom to the upper level and a lift for wheelchair access to the upper floor.
The auditorium can accommodate up to 255 delegates, with facilities for simultaneous translation, film, sound and video presentation. This, combined with a full team of onsite technical expertise, ensures world-class delivery. In addition, there are five comfortable and individually designed meeting rooms allowing for 8-80 delegates. All rooms have natural daylight, electronic blackout blinds, climate control and
sound proofing.
The foyer and bar area with their seating nooks offer an ideal location to break out and enjoy discussions with colleagues over refreshments or receptions.
