Central Library The British Library has announced a major expansion of its highly successful network of library-based Business & IP Centres (BIPCs) to over 100 regional and local libraries across England, including in Ely, Huntingdon and Wisbech.
Following last year’s pledge of £13million in Treasury funding towards the expansion, Cambridgeshire County Council & Peterborough City Council have been allocated a portion of this funding to equip the libraries in Ely, Huntingdon and Wisbech with Business & IP Centre spaces, resources and services by 2023, building on the proven support already available at Cambridge Central Library and Peterborough Central Library. This funding will also be used to provide an upgrade to the existing Business & IP Centre within Peterborough Central Library.
