Study Room Ambassadors

The extended opening hours are possible because of our new Study Room Ambassador Scheme. Following a public call for proposals, ten artists and researchers who represent a wide range of research interests have been invited to become Study Room Ambassadors, hosting Study Room visitors and receiving space, time and other support for independent research in the Study Room in return.
