Welcome to the libray

  • The library: the city’s living room

Bibliotheek Gelderland Zuid

Welcome to the library! The library is a public building, open to everyone. Here you can read anything you like, meet people, have a coffee or just sit and relax. That’s why we call our library the city’s living room. Do you want to improve your Dutch language skills? Or read a newspaper or magazine in your own language? Check out what we can offer you below!

Opening hours of the library (Dutch)

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)

Do you want to improve your Dutch language skills?
Come to the Taalhuis and practise with native speakers.

  • De Mariënburg library in the centre of Nijmegen:
    Tuesdays between 10 - 12 am
