How to Borrow Books at the Library – Changes from August 25

You will now use your university email + the library's PIN code to borrow items from our self-service machines, or show your ID at the information desk.

Starting August 25, the way students and staff borrow books on site at the library  will change.

Here’s how it works:

  • At the self-service machines, log in using your university email address + a special PIN code.
  • At the information desk, show your ID.
  • To access My Loans online, log in using your university username and password as before. The same applies when reserving books online. 
  • The key card is no longer valid as a library card.

If you are not affiliated with the university, you will continue to use your regular library card and existing PIN code.

Where can I find my PIN code?

Both students and staff can find their library PIN code via id.du.se, or via the student and staff webb at du.se: Guide: Find your Library PIN Code
