Booking at the Barbican

The poster on this month's front cover featuring Barbican Library was commissioned by the Barbican Centre's marketing department (after consultation with the Library) as part of a series designed to promote those areas of the Centre's activities thought to be less well known to the general public than, for example, the Royal Shakespeare Company, the concert programme and the Art Gallery. The series cost around £30 000 but no cost fell on the Libraries Department.
