The AAQ Library contains numerous items on a wide range of astronomically related topics published from 1797 ("A Complete System Of Astronomy" by Rev. S. Vince, Cambridge) to present. Members have access to an online Library catalogue which holds selected books from the recent era. Please contact the Librarian for information on the older items in the Library.
A selection of library items is bought to each meeting for members to borrow (see Borrowing Conditions). Please contact the librarian prior to the meeting to borrow a specific library item. Library items can also be posted to members unable to attend the meetings.
