Covid-19 Statement June 2020​

In line with Government advice, we will be re-opening the Mechanics Institute to members and visitors from
Tuesday, 7 July.
Prior to that, our staff will be busy making sure that everything is cleaned to the highest possible standards and that there are some simple protocols in place to ensure the comfort and safety of everyone.

Room Hire & Temporary Office Space:  we are available to take bookings and request that you outline your requirements in an email here.  Together we can ensure that all the logistics are in place for a safe and successful meeting following government guidelines.

We are here to work with Bradford businesses seeking to reconfigure their future office space requirements.  Contact us.  

​Library Members:  We look forward to seeing you asap!  If you have any concerns, please phone ahead and we will help plan your visit.  We know you will understand that additional wiping-down of door handles and surfaces will be done beforehand and after you leave.  Please be assured, the staff will do everything possible to ensure you have a great welcome and an anxiety-free visit.

A sanitised environment NOT a sanitised experience!
The Library is open Tuesday - Friday, 9.30 to 3pm (3pm to 4pm library cleaning)

A breakout space and kitchen as well.
We've been using it for about 4 years and will continue for some time to come."
