Library
The Library is closed until further notice
Update 19 May: Although libraries are allowed to open since 20 May, our library will stay closed. Opening of the library depends on opening of the CWI, which is not the case at the moment.
If you want to return borrowed books, you can leave them at the front desk near the main entrance of CWI. If you want to borrow books you have found in our catalogue, we will try to find a way to get them to you.
For all library related questions (also loans, renewals, copies) don't hesitate to contact us at bibl@cwi.nl.
