Municipal library; application for a library card

Service content

  • Description of the

    Once you have registered at a library, you will be issued with a library card either in person or by post. The card enables you to borrow or reserve books and other media, as well as to make use of any other services. You must present your card whenever you borrow items.

    The library card is valid for a limited period (e.g. 1 year), so you will need to apply for a renewal if necessary.

    Fees may be charged for the use of a local library (e.g. a community library, municipal library or city library).
