Faculty of English

We’ll be closed from August 5-12 inclusive. Check your plans for coming to EFL and mark your diaries accordingly!

Raising a glass of champagne to all graduands from the Faculty of English. Congratulations!

Another academic year done and dusted.  Celebrations are in order…. But if you’re going home this weekend and want books to take with you make sure you come in on SATURDAY. We’re closed on Sunday.

Exams are gradually finishing…..shame about the rain. Remember to check and see if you have overdue books to bring back and/or fines to pay – get the mundane cleared out of the way to leave room for more serious relaxing.

EFL staff wish all finalists the very best for the start of the exams

Open 8.50-9 each weekday ; Open 10-6 Sat & Sun More information in the Library on how busy we are:    

Saturday 23rd April – very very exciting stuff at the UL. Hester Lees-Jeffries on the Shakespeare Tube Map, Edward Wilson-Lee on Shakespeare in Swahililand, AND more!!

Because we know lots of you are back in Cambridge finishing dissertations, the EFL will be open until 7pm this coming week (from 11th April). AND open next weekend too. Keep an eye on the opening hours page.

We’re closed Good Friday – Easter Monday inclusive. Open again on Tuesday 29th March 9.30 am.
