LSE welcomes visits from its alumni, but please note that access to buildings for alumni is different to that for staff and students: 1) Monday – Friday, 08.00 – 18.30
The School is fully open Monday to Friday 08.00 – 18.30, excluding Bank Holidays and School closures at Christmas and Easter (see below). 2) Early mornings, evenings and weekends
Access to LSE buildings before 08.00 and after 18.30 on weekdays, and at all times at weekends, is restricted to LSE staff only. Please note that alumni Library cards permit access ONLY to the Library. 3) Exceptions
The following are exceptions to this rule: - Library - the Library operates its own admissions policy and has opening hours which vary according to the time of year – please see the Library website for details of opening hours and admissions policy. - New Academic Building (NAB) - access to the NAB works on a swipecard system for staff and students. Access for alumni is not possible before 08.00 or after 18.30 on weekdays, or at weekends; access on weekdays is possible either by presenting your alumni Library card or by emailing the NAB reception at least 24 hours in advance of your visit. - Gym and squash club members who are in possession of a valid gym or squash membership card can gain access while the gym and squash courts are open in the evenings and at weekends. When the East Building is closed, access is via the Old Building entrance. - Public lectures, evening classes and other official events – anyone attending public lectures, evening classes and other official LSE activity is permitted access to LSE buildings for the duration of the event. - LSE SU events – the LSE Students’ Union facilities in the East Building and Clare Market Building, including the Three Tuns, are accessed via the Clare Market Building entrance. Some evening and weekend events will require a ticket or LSE identification - it is advisable to check with the LSESU in advance. 4) School closure periods
LSE closes for around a week at Easter and Christmas/New Year. LSE Security staff are available to deal with enquiries only at the reception desk at the Main Entrance to the School. Please see Opening times of buildings for full list, and the LSE Map for details of rooms and buildings. 5) Access to IT facilities
Alumni do not have access to the LSE network, and are therefore not permitted to use IT facilities; with the exception of the open-access visitors' PCs on the first floor of the Library, during Library opening hours (see above). 6) Contravention
The School reserves the right to ban from LSE property anyone found to be contravening these rules. |
