None of the Science Libraries have parking space for readers; it may be possible to book disabled parking nearby but this must be arranged in advance.

There is some Pay & Display on-street parking in the roads near the libraries (Keble Road, Blackhall Road, Museum Road and Mansfield Road, marked "P" below).
