Finding the door

Our entrance is easy to walk past. It is a separate door at the left-hand end of the same building as Pret a Manger, not through the shop.

Drawing of 2–4 Camden High Street: three floors of paired windows with the third floor picked out, and at street level the library’s recessed double door at the left-hand end under the Vision Direct sign, with Pret a Manger filling the rest of the frontage. 3rd floor, above Pret VISIONDIRECT.CO.UK PRET A MANGER Buzzer Our door

    Look for Pret a Manger

    On Camden High Street just north of the Crowndale Road junction, with KOKO across the road. Our building is the one Pret sits in.

  2. 2

    Our door is at the left-hand end

    Immediately left of Pret, under the Vision Direct sign: a double door set back from the pavement, with a shutter above it. It serves the upper floors and you are not going in through the shop.

    Buzz floor 3

    The buzzer panel is on the right-hand side of the doorway. Press the third floor and one of the team will come down and bring you up.

Accessibility

Set out plainly, so nothing is a surprise when you get here.

  • The lift is small

    It fits two people standing. It is too narrow for a wheelchair or a pram.

  • Three flights of stairs

    There is a handrail the whole way up to the third floor.

  • Toilets on our floor

    Two unisex toilets, on the same floor as the library.

  • Someone meets you at the door

    You are never left to find your own way up. A volunteer comes down for you.

  • Nearest step-free station

    Camden Road, a 12-minute walk. Mornington Crescent and Camden Town both have steps.

When we are open

We are a volunteer-run library, so we open on the days a volunteer can be here rather than to fixed hours. Dates appear on the booking page as volunteers confirm them.
