Description:
BLOOMSBURY. This institution is part gallery, part museum, and ­ of course ­ part library. With its fascinating exhibits, the library is a great place to learn about British history, especially political and literary history. Items such as the Magna Carta, which changed the world of politics in 1215, and the Gutenberg Bible, which in 1455 was the first book printed using Gutenberg's world-altering printing press, are awe-inspiring and well presented. Exhibitions on greats such as Oscar Wilde or on particular literary styles make the library a must for visitors interested in the written word. TUBE: King's Cross St. Pancras or Euston Square

Mon and Wed-Fri 9:30am-6pm, Tue 9:30am-8pm, Sat 9:30am-5pm, Sun 11am-5pm
