Very nice library, with plenty space for readying, research, studying. It undergo an extensive remodelation and as a result it’s very updated and accessible. It has a small exhibition about the codex gigas which was vey interesting. The only bad side is the cafeteria which is a self service but it has a lot of seats.

Sveriges nationalbibliotek med ansvar för miljontals böcker, trycksaker och andra typer av alla möjliga slags media. Stränga regler finns för att bevara materialens värde, och höjdrädd får man inte vara för att gå i smala trappor och gångar … Mer

Free to enter public library holding the ‘Codex Gigas’. Upon entry, you will need to store your bags and jackets in free lockers. The exhibit itself is located on the 2nd floor, as you actually go down into the library below ground level. … Mer

They have silly security measures where one cannot bring a bag or a water bottle with them. For this I give detract two stars. Seriously, do they think people are going to come into the reading room and blow themselves up, or fill a water … Mer

Stort, gammalt och nytt blandat i en salig röra, men stil fullt. Kanske lite stökiga och bökiga och förlegade rutiner när det gällde hur man skulle låna böcker, men respekt för det, det är ju våra nationalsamlingar som gömmer sig innanför … Mer

Amazing library with lots of reference books and materials, old newspapers and the like. Many records and some rare books/manuscripts as well. Well worth a visit just to look around but many people seem to be studying as well. You can't … Mer

Better and more options regarding quiet study areas compared to Stockholm City Library. Lockers where you can store your personal belongings. However, straight ahead from the entrance, there's an information desk, to the right of which … Mer

Lovely library! Very interesting backpack + coat storage situation - do be aware that you’ll need to put away most of your belongings and just take what you absolutely need - e.g. laptop, notebook, pencils into the library itself. … Mer

Fantastiskt bibliotek där jag alltid hittar vad jag letar efter. Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Även om man kan inte låna hem böckerna så finns en fin sal där man kan läsa böckerna och det funkar väldigt bra.

  • Bernadette Roca

Nice library, good free WiFi. The reading room is quite nice, old school. The rest of the building is quite modern - in a good way. What libraries should strive to be. Plenty of reading and study space. … Mer

  • Topaz Gross

I do not read in Swedish, so I can not testify about the nature of the books. But the library itself, as a place, working, studding, or just resting at the end of the day with a good book - is wonderful

An interesting place to visit if one is around the area. A library that extends below ground level, where they store (physical) copies of every single book, film and media published in Sweden. … Mer

AI is going to turn libraries into museums, not however, the sensation of bibliosmia. It won't be easily superseded by anything else.

I’m sure the place is great and all but I just wanted to share that I know where the lost 10 pages of the “ Devils Bible” are
