Leave a legacy

By leaving a gift to the British Library in your Will, you will continue to make a difference to the world’s knowledge in years to come.

Legacies are greatly appreciated and carefully used: you can be assured that we will follow your wishes as closely as we can.

Recent legacies to the British Library have had a tremendous impact, enabling us to make acquisitions of music manuscripts that we would never otherwise have been able to purchase; providing much-needed funds for our Conservation programme; and endowing an expert curator post.

If you are considering leaving a gift in your Will to the British Library and would like to discuss options or would like more information, please contact Abby Wilson, Patrons and Planned Giving Manager on 020 7412 7331 or abby.wilson@bl.uk

The Library's ethos, principles and ambitions strike a chord with me; the services on offer are the practical demonstration of what the place is about.

I have had a lifelong love of books and feel that the British Library is an inspiring place and well worthy of support, particularly at a time when funding for the arts in general appears to be under threat.
