The Crafts Council Research Library will be open as usual from Wednesday 17th June. Our opening hours are Wednesday and Thursday, 10am-5pm.
Researchers from fashion designers at Stella McCartney and Reiss mix with advertising agencies working for Old Speckled Hen beer, new and established makers and A level students to use the extensive resources at the Crafts Council Research Library.
The Research Library is the only resource dedicated completely to contemporary craft. Combined with the Information Service available online, by email and by phone, the Research & Information Team can help a variety of users find what they need.
Dorothy Hogg MBE, jeweller-in-residence at the V&A in 2008/09 said “I spent time at the start of my residency in the Crafts Council Research Library. I was assisted with access to books, catalogues, recorded interviews and images of makers work in the welcome quiet one hopes to find in a library.”
Work from the Crafts Council Collection is also on display in the library, providing a creative and inspiring environment to flip through design magazines, exhibition catalogues, or search our directories for a maker.
How to visit
The Research Library is on the 1st Floor of the Crafts Council offices on Pentonville Road. The Library is accessible by a lift and stairs and our building has ramp access.
