If you are a student at Freie Universität Berlin, your valid student ID (Campuscard) serves as your user card for all Freie Universität libraries.

Other users residing in Berlin or the state of Brandenburg can obtain a library card free of charge when they present their current ID card or passport together with a Meldebescheinigung (certificate of registration).

Users who are not residents of Berlin or the state of Brandenburg can obtain a guest pass with which they can order media for internal use in our Reading Room. Copies or scans can also be made there if required.

Young people over the age of 16 can obtain a library card upon presenting their ID and completing an application form. Children and young people under the age of 16 are not allowed to use the library.

Institutes, government offices, and companies can obtain an institutional user card from the Central Library upon request.
