Lantern Centre and Library

Early closure of the Lantern Centre and Gosall Library

The Lantern Centre has had to close today and tomorrow due to staff shortages. Access to the library is, therefore, not available now until the building reopens on Tuesday 3rd January.

We apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause. A virtual service will be in operation during the Christmas period. Details are below. Please email the library team with any requests: academic.library@lscft.nhs.uk

Merry Christmas
