Dortmund City and State Library

This Library is an ideal place to study on your own as well as in groups. It’s also facilitated with printers and copy machine you can use in very affordable price compared to the common copy shops! There are also some action where you can get books for free which is very nice. The studying spaces are very quite and the ambient keeps you well concentrated. If you're searching for a quiet place for studying and another learning atmosphere, this is the right place to go!

Wide variety of books available. Beautiful interior. Membership fee is just 10 Euros for students per year and we can take 50 books at a time.

Large stock of books and great service thanks to the many branches. You can order media from other branches that are not available locally. Interlibrary loan and magazine orders are also possible.

nice library, centrally located, free wifi, lots of light. The noise level, due to the constantly running escalators and conversations on the ground floor, is unfortunately too loud. Department store atmosphere. I tried the recommended "calmed down" workplaces. However, the escalator can also be heard. Why not just get rid of the escalator? What are the benefits? (there is an elevator) And how much money does the escalator actually cost per year compared to a simple staircase?

The staff are actually quite friendly, but as always there are exceptions. The handling of the ID card template is also handled differently. Pity!
