An amazing experience from start to finish. Friendly and efficient staff totally make this place. Great design, lovely food, and a truly effortless experience to what would otherwise be a pain in the main terminal. The car journey to your plane across the airfield is a real highlight too! Worth the expense for sure.

Since the Bankers caused such chaos and we baled them out most large town libraries have gone part time with unmanned access and little in the way of jobs for librarians.Community Libraries stood no chance with many closing.After all why educate people as they will then be more aware of how they are being manipulated ? How refreshing to see a modern busy bustling library.Although I live in a neighboroughing Borough,which has been hammered by Tory Policies,I,m glad to report there is no such evidence of Austerity in the City Library.This is what Libraries should be like.No shush we're reading as a party of Primary school pupils came with their packed lunches.It was easy for me to join and a helpful member of staff admitted the screens were temperamental so helped me with the application on the touchscreen.I was soon delving into my family history alongside a volunteer.There are banks of computers along with books and archives.A top class facility befitting the splendid Victorian Architecture.Modern Manchester,up to date with a glance back at our history.

Chetham’s Library has been in continuous use as a public library for over 350 years. It is housed in a beautiful sandstone building dating from 1421 which was built to accommodate the priests of Manchester’s Collegiate Church.

Cannot describe this library with enough superlatives! Only compact and I did have to pay a small fee (book online) to pay, but this space is a MUST to visit in my opinion. It drips with history in every nook, crevice and artefact. I sat at the same desk as Marx and Engels, read facsimiles of their books and stared through the same window (albeit the view has somewhat changed). We had a great tour guide who pointed out interesting facts and had a wealth of knowledge about the building. The original arched doors and corridors to the Priests rooms brought shivers of being in another time dimension. Come away feeling enriched!
