Reconfiguring the Library and creating conservation and digitisation studios
The original layout of the library was reconfigured with improved structural strength, state-of-the-art security and safety systems, inbuilt passive climatic control, making the best use of the available space.
As part of the project, fully-equipped conservation and digitisation studios will be installed next to the library for safer and easier sharing.
