New Reader Services Librarian

Important information for visitors

Until summer 2025, there is a new visitor route at the National Maritime Museum while we carry out essential improvements to the Museum's roof. Most galleries will still be open as normal, and special exhibitions are currently free for all visitors. However, the Great Map and AHOY! will be closed for the duration of the works.

After a fortnight of shaking hands and introductions all around the National Maritime Museum, I'd like to introduce myself to readers of The Caird Library Blog: I'm Gareth Bellis and I have joined the Archive and Library Team as Reader Services Librarian. For the past four and-a-half years I had been Assistant Librarian at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. I have joined the Library at a time of change and development as we prepare the collections for their move to the Museum's new Sammy Ofer Wing in 2012. I look forward to the challenges that this will bring and the opportunity to get to know both the Caird Library's readers and its world-class collection better.
