Access
Users need to make an appointment to visit, and the library is reference only (books and other resources can be read, but not borrowed). However, the catalogue of the library's holdings is available online and registration, as well as use of the Library itself is free to the general public.
History
Having been established in 1994, Iniva's library was renamed The Stuart Hall Library in 2007 when Rivington Place was opened as the new home of Iniva. It is named after the leading Cultural Studies theoretician, Jamaican-British writer Stuart Hall, who was the founding chair of Iniva.
