But we also have wellbeing room as a breakout space where members can take some time to de-stress and relax. Features include an aromatheraphy diffuser that releases soft scents, an air purifier, an interactive notice with key resources, information and events related to wellbeing at Middle Temple. |
ExhibitionsThe Library holds three exhibitions a year. Our current exhibition The Evolution of the Law Report will run from February to April 2024 and can be visited during opening hours. Learn how this important document has evolved over the centuries. From Pleas Rolls to Year Books, manuscripts to nominates, to digitisation and beyond, this document has changed alongside the evolving legal landscape. |
