The Chris Mead Library
The CHRIS MEAD LIBRARY is housed at the BTO headquarters in Thetford, in what was the Chapel of the old Nunnery.
It is primarily for the use of staff and members, though non-members are most welcome to use it for research purposes. Please contact the librarian with your enquiries.
You may visit in person during office hours (9am - 5pm weekdays), but please ring first if possible to ensure someone will be available to help you if required. The Librarian's normal working hours are 9am to 3pm, Monday to Thursday.
If it is inconvenient for you to visit personally, BTO members may borrow books by post, and copies of papers can be supplied at a nominal charge (non-members may also request copies)
Full details about use of the Library are available here.
