Library account for external users
External users need a library account to borrow books or to use the library's other services.
To register as an external user at Stockholm University Library you need to be over 18 years of age, and to present a Swedish photo ID, or proof of enrollment at another Swedish University. After application, you activate your library account by showing identification in the library.
Library account for guests
If you do not have a valid Swedish ID and are not enrolled at a university or college in Sweden, then you are counted as a guest. We can issue you with a guest account, and you are free to use the services of the library, limited to the library building. You may not borrow books or other materials from the library.
