The Joan Thomas Library
The Joan Thomas Library, named after a loved and respected previous librarian who died in 2015.
The Society maintains, for use by members, an extensive Library of astronomical books.
The Library Catalogue has been divided according to subject to make browsing a bit easier.
The Library is located in a side room off the lecture room at the Cardiff University Department of Physics and Astronomy in which the Society holds its fortnightly talks. The Library is usually open for at least half an hour prior to the talks and for a short period afterwards.
Items can be borrowed - by paid-up members only - for an initial period of two calendar months but the loan period can be extended upon request to the current Librarian, provided that no other member has asked to borrow the item.
Finally, the Society is happy to receive donated books from members and we would also welcome reviews from members of books they have borrowed and enjoyed.
