Thank you to all those who joined us in the Reading Room for the President’s Christmas Party, our annual event to thank London Library patrons and supporters.

Hosted by our President, Helena Bonham Carter, guests were treated to entertaining readings by Nancy Carroll, Celia Imrie and Samuel West, taken from longstanding member John Julius Norwich’s Christmas Crackers. Readings were followed by live music from Johnny Flynn and the Sheldrake Brothers. Early festive cheer and camaraderie filled the room.  

All Founders’ Circle patrons are invited to these biannual President’s parties, alongside an exciting programme of exclusive events and tailored access to the Library, its people and its work.
