British Balloon Museum and Library

Books and Magazines

The BBM&L Library is housed within the University of Cranfield Library. It is a reference-only collection, and the Library is unable to lend any books or other publications.

To visit the Library it is necessary to first contact John Harrington, the librarian at Cranfield (tel: 01234 751122) to make an appointment. When arriving at the Library one should contact the desk on the first floor. Assistance or advice can be arranged with the BBM&L if required.

The British Balloon Museum is pleased to accept donations of balloon literature of any kind, including books entirely on lighter than air flight, magazine articles, birthday cards, balloon cards, packaging, printed programmes from balloon meets and pilot's packs. Log books of historical balloons or persons associated with ballooning are welcome, as they reflect the development of the sport.
