In honour of Fat Bear Week, we'd like to put forward for your consideration... Fat Book Week!

As a library in the UK, we watch Fat Bear Week with delight from afar. No bears here.

But we do have plenty of hefty tomes on our shelves, so we've spent this week hunting down our fattest books for your entertainment. Enjoy!

Which is your favourite?

Over the summer and into autumn, we've loved hosting groups for building tours and library talks!

Groups include armed forces personnel and some lovely librarian colleagues from Imperial

If you're interested in a building tour to learn more about the history of the Institution and our beautiful building, email us at [email protected]
