You are going to travel to London for about one week and spend two days visiting the London Library. You are studying for a project and want to do some background studies.

I am Ankitha, pursuing my Masters’s degree from Anna University. I plan to visit London
next
month for a week and would like to see the Central Library for two days to complete my research program and perform a few background checks following my curriculum.
Let me briefly illustrate my project. My dissertation involves the origin of humans from apes and further
evolution and adaptation to a wide variety of lifestyles since then
. It includes behavioural patterns of people with tremendous changes in technology from our ancestors to the modern era.
For my research work, I prefer to scan books and paperwork written by renowned scientists, which comprises extraordinary findings while exploring archaeological sites. These books consist of accurate information and techniques inculcated, such
as radioactive carbon dating principles that help to discover the age of various objects used by ancestors, and I would like to incorporate their strategies in my study.
Furthermore
, I would like to utilize the computer amenities and video journals which are made available to the public with prior registration. These are required to locate all books and grasp knowledge by watching some movies and films. I will bring a letter of permission from my professor to access these resources.
Thank you for your considerationSubmitted by amushazia12 on

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
