Since 2020, the library is located in the Sojourner Truth Community Centre, Peckham, Southwark, South London.

[1][2] The library faced a financial crisis in 2003 when Lambeth Council substantially increased the rent on the building.

[3] Four years later, in 2007, the management committee called an emergency meeting as a final attempt to gather support.

As of 2010[update], the collection included some 7,500 books, of which around 5,000 are non-fiction, 500 poetry publications, and 1,500 periodical titles, many self-published, taking about 85 metres of shelving.

[10] The amount of poetry and fiction in the library is unusual for a special collection focused on a political movement.
