Due to the outbreak of covid-19 the library services to off campus students are also available to campus students living outside Karlstad town.

KAU cards can be used as library cards.

If you haven't applied for a KAU card and want to borrow books you need to get registered in the library system. Fill out the application form and choose a pin code. The pin is used if you need to request books and to log in to My loans.
