   You can't access the tarot cards. My cousin was there and they didn't explain much what happened, just the guy at the reception took some time to tell us why we couldn't access them, but there is no info online

   This is written from the point of view of an ordinary member of the public, not an academic or student at the university, so we only had access to the public areas. I visited because I'd read an article about the renovation of the library and was fascinated by the idea of its unique approach to cultural history, and hoped to find out more. Sadly the exhibition was rather jumbled and cursory - a small collection of random memorabilia with little interpretation or explanation of what it all meant. It had the feeling of being put together hastily by someone who was obliged to do it to fulfil a funding condition, not someone with a burning desire to explain the work of the institute. Worth a half hour of your time if you're in the area, but disappointing and a missed opportunity.

   The most glorious library to ever grace London. The collection on European art and humanist culture is vast and contains many books in languages other than English. This allows for more complex research which is really cool. You can browse books yourself, which is another great quality. The stuff is super nice and ready to help. You can also buy some library merch - good quality tote bags, postcards, memory sticks, and mugs. It’s also worth visiting for a copying machine. It makes good quality scans of books and complies pdfs while being extremely easy for use. The only inconvenience is the renovation works taking place right now. It gets pretty cold and some levels are closed.

   One of the great academic libraries of the world. The classification and shelving system is not easy for newcomers to understand, but the effort is usually well rewarded. Staffed by very capable and helpful scholars. Not open to the general public -- consult the website for information about gaining access.
