Experience the convenience of self-service
The Eindhoven Library is here for everyone. It's a place where you meet fellow citizens, where you can go for a lecture, get advice at the legal consultations or where you can exchange experiences with other young parents during the breastfeeding-café or the reading aloud afternoons. A place where you can quietly enjoy coffee with a magazine and where you feel comfortable, alone or with others. A place where you can study for hours and tutor or receive tutoring.
To give even more people the opportunity to use the library, the Eindhoven library in De Witte Dame will open more often as of the end of October.
Extended opening hours effective Oct. 30, 2023
Starting Monday, October 30, the Eindhoven Library will have extended opening hours. We will then be open at:

- Saturday and Sunday we will remain open as we were; Saturday from 10.00 to 17.00 and on Sunday from 13.00 to 17.00.
Self-service
New is that from 17.00 onwards we will be working with 'self-service'.
This means that no staff will be present but you can borrow, return and use the computers and workstations yourself.
What is different during self-service hours?
During self-service hours, you can use the library's facilities independently. You can select, borrow and return books yourself. You can read a newspaper or magazine, work or study and you can use the computers.
