City Business Library

Extremely impressed with this library for those of us going-​it-​alone and attempting to set up a business! They’ve a wide range of resources and a lovey, bright, airy space to work in with wifi. I’m most excited about all the talks and events they have on to support small businesses. I’ve signed up for a few in August. They’re extremely popular so you’ve got to get in there quickly!

One of my go-​to places when I’m doing casual market research or want to seek out an article from a back issue of the Harvard Business Review.
The business library is small, but fairly packed with decent resources. They have all of the hard copy Mintel reports (there’s also a rumour that you can access the Mintel database, but for some reason I haven’t had much success getting anything more than the abstracts to pop up… seems like I asked a librarian about this and they didn’t seem to think I could get anything more than what I was seeing). There are also industry-​specific publications and plenty of financial rags on tap.
I like working here since it’s in close proximity to the city… Monument and Bank tube stations are both nearby… and the large executive wooden tables offer plenty of workspace.
If you’re an entrepreneur I recommend you at least pop in here for a visit. There’s lots of good information available that can help bolster your business… and plenty of fliers and info regarding entrepreneurial events and lectures that are happening in and around London.
