Brotherton Room, Special Collections, Floor 4 of the Brotherton Library, via Parkinson Building, University of Leeds, Woodhouse Lane, LS2 9JT.
The Brotherton Library is situated just behind, and connected to, the Parkinson Building. To get there you can take the 95 bus from Leeds train station, or the 96 bus from Leeds bus station. Get off the bus at the tall white building with the tower and large set of steps at the front. Enter the building at the top of the set of steps. The Brotherton library is straight ahead. You will need to tell the reception staff that you are attending the Feminist Archive event.
To access the building via a step free route is available via the School of Chemistry. The link door to the Brotherton will open automatically until 5pm. After this time you will need to press the buzzer so staff can let you in by remotely unlocking the door. Reception staff can advise you of the availbe routes to the Brotherton Room once in the library.
More info from the University can be found here, but I didn't think it was actually that helpful.
