Biblioteca Tomás Navarro Tomás
26-28 Calle de Albasanz
About
Biblioteca Tomás Navarro Tomás is a humanities research library within Madrid's CSIC Centre for Human and Social Sciences. The reading room is spacious and bright, with natural lighting and comfortable workstations. Staff are generally friendly and helpful. A cafeteria serves inexpensive daily menus and sandwiches. The library is quiet and well-maintained, though reviewers note it is in a remote neighbourhood.
Access rules are inconsistent: the website states that a university ID and enrolment certificate permit entry, but some visitors report being turned away for studying, told that access is for research purposes only. Workstations have separate power outlets and individual lighting. The library opens weekdays 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM.
