Reading Room & Cultural Reference Library
A working reference library on Akan and Asante authority, Ghanaian history, African art, photography, textiles and the practice of archiving. Every title is held for consultation in the reading room; none is lent out. Catalogue records are public, and members may reserve a title before visiting.

Search and explore the library catalogue — books, publications and reference documents — from wherever you are.
Find what you'd like to read, then reserve it ahead of your visit to the reading room at Laboni / Ring Road East, Accra.
Members sit, read and research on site — a quiet, comfortable space, supported by our team. Materials stay in the room for the next reader.

Online search and reservation will connect when the library CMS goes live. Until then, write to the library with a subject or shelf mark and we will confirm what is on the shelf.
