I’m very happy to hear from students, colleagues, and anyone else who wants to get in touch; this page is here to help save you effort in doing this.
Normally email to John.Lavagnino@kcl.ac.uk is the best way to reach me, and you should expect a response within 24 hours. If you flag a mail message in the subject line with EMERGENCY I’ll respond sooner if I can. Perfectly reasonable messages sometimes get marked as spam by our mail system, so please send me a further inquiry if you haven’t received an answer after a day.
My office is at King’s College London, Strand campus, but not in the main building in the Strand: instead I’m at 26–29 Drury Lane, second floor, room 214 (look here for a map). Unless you’re in this building frequently anyway, email me and make an appointment so you can be sure of finding me here: I’m often out of the office teaching classes, attending meetings, doing research in the British Library, or the like. Propose some times that would be convenient for you and I’m sure we can arrange something. During the King’s teaching terms I also have regular office hours when I’m guaranteed to be here and you can just drop in; in the spring term of 2012 I'll be in the office from 3:30 to 4:30 PM on Thursdays and Fridays, except during reading week (February 23 and 24).
Or you can phone my office, at 020 7848 2453 (outside the United Kingdom, it’s +44 20 7848 2453). I don’t always answer the phone even when I’m in the office, because flesh-and-blood visitors get priority. I don’t check answering-machine messages when out of the office.
My postal address at King’s is:
