You are welcome to take photographs for your own personal use in most of our exhibitions and in other public areas of the building, except where signs indicate otherwise. Please do not use flash or tripods.
You are also welcome to take photographs with the same conditions at events, unless photography is specifically prohibited. Please look for signs or ask staff.
For information on photographing and copying items from our collections, please read the library copying and photography guidance.
