Lonely Planet review for Women’s Library

Just round the corner from the Whitechapel Gallery, the Women’s Library, part of the London Metropolitan University, is a unique repository for all manner of books and documents related to women’s history. It contains a reading room open to the public, as well as archive and museum collections, and organises talks and special exhibitions (last seen – Between the Covers: Women’s Magazines and Their Reader). The building is a modern take on the former Goulston Square Wash House, one of the oldest public baths in London.
