While we are housed in our temporary accommodation at 81 Parnie Street, our entire collection will remain stored in over 500 large boxes and is therefore not accessible. During this time, our usual opening hours are suspended while we concentrate on planning for our long-term future at the Mitchell Library.
However, events and courses are continuing at the Library. Find out more about upcoming events and courses at the Library, or read more about our relocation.
Our new address is:
Glasgow Women's Library
2nd Floor, 81 Parnie Street
Glasgow G1 5RH
The Library is a women only space during opening hours and events. Men are welcome to visit by appointment at other times. Contact the Library for more information.
If you are heading from Argyle Street along Trongate, turn right down King Street, then take the first right again on to Parnie Street. 81 Parnie Street is on the left side of the street.
The Library is accessible by both lift and stairs.
Glasgow Women's Library is wheelchair accessible (there is a lift to all floors) and has a disabled access toilet. If you would like help in accessing the Library please telephone ahead and we will be pleased to offer assistance.
Lots of bus services stop along Trongate and Argyle Street.
