This Is London Reports In what is being seen as a huge embarrassment to the library’s security team – responsible for guarding many of the nation’s most precious literary treasures including the Magna Carta – three crooks made off with booty worth thousands of pounds.
The men entered the British Library’s flagship building in Euston Road last week and gathered up audio-visual equipment worth approximately £16,000 and prepared to make their escape.
That, according to an insider, did not prove difficult. In fact, it was so easy that the British Library admitted it is to launch a security review.
