The library is for everyone

The war in Ukraine affects us all. More and more Ukrainians are coming to the Netherlands. What does Bibliotheek Gelderland Zuid do? On this page you will find an overview to guide you. Wherever you come from. No matter how old you are. Whether you are a member or not. Everyone is welcome in the public library. To learn, to practice your digital or language skills, to meet others, to relax and of course to read. The library has always been there for newcomers. Ukrainian refugees are also warmly welcomed in our libraries.

Language Café (Taalcafé)

In our free Taalcafé, you can practise speaking Dutch.

Practising with other people is very helpful when learning a new language. You will talk to other people who are learning Dutch and native speakers. Each meeting has a particular topic. That might be the news or something that is typical for Dutch culture.

Check here the opening hours of the Taalcafé. In Nijmegen you're welcome every wednesday from 10-12am and every thursday from 7-8.30pm in Mariënburg library.

Language House (Taalhuis)

Online newspapers and magazines

On a computer in the library or on your own tablet or smartphone by downloading the PressReader app. Connect with the Wi-Fi network in our library and read anywhere you like, online or offline.
