To obtain a library card, you have to come to the library and present a valid photo ID. The library card resembles a credit card and bears a card number and a bar code. You will decide your own five-figure PIN code and which library you want to be attached to. 

With your library card you are now ready to make use of the library´s self-service.

Loans and returns at the self-service terminals

The library card and PIN code enables you to borrow library materials at the self-service terminals. The terminal prints out a receipt of the borrowed materials and the date of return. Upon returning materials, you will also receive a receipt from the self-service return terminal. This receipt is your documentation for having returned the materials.
 

Online library services

With your library card and PIN code you can make use of the numerous digital library services on our website. You can also search for materials online, make reservations, renew your loans and much more.
