Comments:
The Library had extensive building work carried out in 1995. I have made extensive enquiries with both existing and past staff, and current staff have made physical checks of the building, all to no avail. The Library may be closing in 2021 or 2022. There is a very small chance it is hiding behind a modern partition wall, although a review of the plans of the building do not give serious credence to that hypothesis. If the Library closes there is thus a very small chance it could reappear in subsequent conversion work. However all opinion is that it was inadvertently skipped in 1995 by contractors.
