**1. The British Library**

The British Library is home to the world's second greatest book collection, holding 150 million items. It is only minutes away from King's Cross station! People can enter the library for free, and student and members (over the age of 18) have access to a Reader Pass via online pre-registration. This place is perfect for studying productively. Bear in mind that the reading rooms are strictly controlled (you should leave your water bottle and bags in the cloakroom, and you are only allowed to bring in pencils to write with). Enjoy your studies with a beautiful inspiring background!
