Nottingham Subscription Library was founded in 1816 and moved in 1822 to its present home, Bromley House, which is centrally situated in the city on Angel Row. It is a dark red brick building built in 1752 as a ‘town house’ for George Smith, grandson of the founder of Smiths Bank, the oldest known provincial bank in the country.

Happy Birthday Sir David Attenborough and to mark his 100th there is a small display with some of the titles in our collection by him and about him. Our natural history collection is a favourite with our readers - with comfy chairs, a view of the garden and shelves to explore - what is there not to love?
