About us

Charing Cross Campus Library has around 200 study spaces (approximately 150 of which have power sockets), over 60 PCs, a large silent study area and three bookable group study rooms.

The PCs, available for all library users including NHS staff, are connected to the Imperial College London network. We have four colour printer-copiers for A4 or A3 paper. These can also scan to email. Imperial College London Wi-Fi is available to all registered library users.

Our collection covers general medicine, including medical textbooks, as well as nursing and professions allied to medicine. We also have a collection of non-clinical and fiction titles.

Special collections

The archive collections of Charing Cross Hospital (1818-1974) and the Charing Cross Hospital Medical School / Charing Cross & Westminster Medical School (1823-1997) are now held at the Abdus Salam Library.

You can find listings of items in these collections on the AIM25 database.
