Most of the library, including the cofee bar and courtyard has wireless internet access (pay as you go, and seriously overpay, at that) - see [http://www.bl.uk/whatson/wifi.html their page about it]. |

summary='Major library on Euston Road' |
The British Library's main site is on the Euston Road, though they also have a newspaper archive in Colindale.
The building of the British Library is worth a look if you are waiting for a train at the nearby Euston, St Pancras or Kings Cross railway stations.
Although you need a readers pass to access the collections held at the library, the building itself is open to the public, and there are generally a couple of exhibitions happenning. In addition there is a restauant and a coffee bar inside.
As an aside, they have a bizarre domain name!
