Study places

KTH Library is a public library that is open to everyone. Some of our services are only for students and staff at KTH, but everyone is welcome to visit our libraries and study on our beautiful premises.

The Main Library at KTH Campus offers many different study spaces so you can choose what suits you. Most study spaces are equipped with power outlets for laptops.

Our library is a popular study spot. On this page, you will find information about various types of study places and some tips on how to make the most of the library as a study area.
