Founded by Enriqueta Rylands in memory of her husband John Rylands, the library opened to the public in 1900 as a gift to Manchester and its people.
Today, it is part of The University of Manchester Library and offers a range of services and resources for researchers, students and visitors. Whether you want to explore our exhibitions, join our events or simply marvel at our architecture, we look forward to welcoming you to this magnificent library.
At busier times it may be necessary to limit the number of visitors to protect our Grade 1 listed building, so we may ask you to queue outside prior to entry.
From St Peter's Square Metrolink Station, walk northwest on Princess Street / John Dalton Street until you reach Deansgate. Turn left onto Deansgate and walk for approximately 100 metres. John Rylands Research Institute and Library will be on your right.
