Kensal Rise Library is a public library in London, England, opened by American author Mark Twain in 1900. The site was donated by All Souls College, Oxford. The library's threatened closure prompted a large campaign to save it, led by figures including Alan Bennett, Philip Pullman, Zadie Smith, Nick Cave and Pet Shop Boys.The library was formerly part of the London Borough of Brent library services, it is now run independently. Users require a specific Kensal Rise Library card to use the service and it is open 2 days a week.
