Visit the library on weekdays after 16:30, and on weekends

From September 2, 2024, the library has changed opening hours for the general public. The changed opening hours also affect students and staff at Södertörn University (SH), Swedish Red Cross University (RKH) and The University College of Music Education in Stockholm (SMI).

What applies to me?

• Student or staff at SH, RKH or SMI
  For you, the library is open as usual, but to visit the library on weekdays after 16:30 and on weekends, you need a keycard (SH card). Keycards can be picked up at the Infocenter, upon presenting valid ID.
  
  Remember to always have your keycard available when you visit the library during evenings and weekends!

• Member of the general public (not a student or staff at SH, RKH or SMI)
  You are welcome to visit the library on weekdays 8:30-16:30, when the library is open to everyone. No keycard is needed to visit the library during these opening hours. (Please note that changed opening hours occur during summer/holidays).
  
  Need to return a book while the library is closed? You can always use the book drop, which is open for returns at all times. The book drop is located to the left of the main entrance, just around the corner.

We are located in the campus area of Flemingsberg, just a few minutes' walk from Flemingsberg station. The address for visitors is Alfred Nobels Allé 11. When arriving from the commuter train, walk towards the campus area, and you will find the library on your left, opposite the Södertörn University main building Moas Båge.

Finding your way around the library

The library is divided into 3 floors:

• The main entrance is located on Floor 5. When you enter the building you will find the information desk and this is where you can ask all your questions. Just next to the desk is the room where we keep a copy of all the mandatory course literature, available for loan during the day. On floor 5 you will also find journals, our collection of teaching resources and all the literature placed on shelves A–I. Conversations and group work are allowed on this floor.
• Between floors 5 and 6 is the Silent reading room.
• Floor 6 is the upper floor of the library. Here you will find government publications and all literature placed on shelves J–X. The floor is divided into a quiet zone, and a zone where conversations are allowed. If you want to work together in a group, please make sure to check that you are in the correct zone.
• Floor 7 is home to the new study environment Aniara, with spaces for both group studies, including two group rooms, and individual studies, as well as a room for lectures and events, and two small researcher rooms, aimed at visiting researchers. There is also an examination room on floor 7.
  

Below the library, on floor 4, is a restaurant and a café.

On each floor, there are group study rooms and rooms with printers and photocopiers. There are also group work spaces everywhere in the library where conversations are allowed. You will find toilets on both floors.
