Burnley Caving Club maintains a Library which includes books, logbooks, magazines, photographs, videos, maps and caving surveys. Most of the materials are available for loan to members, with the more fragile historical material available for reference. BCC subscribes to British caving magazines and other publications, giving members access to all current major caving publications.
If you require any further information or if you have any caving related items you wish to donate please contact the
Unfortunately a number of items have gone missing from the Library, if you can be of any help in locating any BCC Library items please contact the
