Based here at ACE, the Scottish Radical Library (SRL) can be accessed during normal opening hours. However on a Tuesday the ECAP drop-in makes it difficult to access the full library.

SRL membership is free and we encourage people to come and browse both the library and the other resources ACE has to offer.

Alongside the SRL there is the Autonomous Archive – a rich repository of radical historical materials open to the public. Although archive items cannot be taken from ACE, they are fully accessible and can be scanned/photographed free of charge.

Any events by the SRL are listed on the ‘Events‘ page.

If you’d like to contact us before you come or while we’re closed, our email is srl@riseup.net. If you’d like to volunteer with the library, get in touch and we can discuss what kind of help we’re looking for.

Online Catalogue: Check out the online catalogue accessible through the SRL website.
