Lending

In our library you will find books, magazines, films, music, apps and games in German. Our translated titles also offer non-German readers the opportunity to learn about literature, culture, society, politics and current affairs in Germany. Another focus is our collection of German as a foreign language. In addition, there are media for children and young people.

Registration and library membership

The library is open to the public and the access to media is free of charge. A valid membership card is required to borrow media. You must therefore register personally in the library.

Due to renovation work the library reopens to you in a different location from Tuesday 2nd to Friday 12th July 2024 and from 29th July 2024 for use restricted to loans (to be pre-registered online). You can now find us on the second floor of the SIKABAT building, opposite the Ecole Publique Bastos.

Opening Hours

Monday to Friday : 10:00 am to 04:00 pm
Saturday to Sunday: Closed
The majority of the media in the library can be borrowed. A self-check-out system is available in the library. The self-checkout terminal can only be used with a valid library card.
