Searching our catalogues

Anyone can visit the e-Library to search our catalogue - it is not necessary to be a member or to log in.

Members of Westminster Libraries can:

  • reserve or renew items
  • use the online resources
  • review their account
  • set new alerts

by first logging on with their membership number and password.

Members can also opt to receive email or voicemail reminders about their reservations and/or overdue items. This service is provided at no charge.

If you are a member and you do not have (or have forgotten) your password, you can get one by speaking to a member of staff when you next visit the library.
