Municipal Public Library and restrictions in the culture sector

Due to the currently applicable restrictions in the culture sector, we are introducing changes to the operation of the Municipal Public Library in Szczecin.

We have been forced to close our branches to the readers. Some remote services will be rendered online. During the lockdown of libraries, we will not charge fees for late book returns.

The closing of library branches to readers does not mean that they will cease to function altogether. Please feel free to use e-books available on Legimi and Ibuk platforms. Until the end of November, we are taking part in the Czytaj PL campaign, thanks to which our e-package is being extended by new books and audio books. 

Pedestrians going past our ProMedia library branch are invited to view two exhibitions showcased in the library window displays - one of them is devoted to the figure of Sydonia von Borck, and the other is entitled “Plakaty z wirusem” (“Posters with the Virus”) and is an accurate commentary on the pandemic reality. The exhibitions may be viewed by walking from Krzywoustego St. and Wojska Polskiego Ave. 

The libraries encourage readers to use internet communication via their website or social media, to watch broadcasts from meetings with book authors in the form of videos posted on YouTube platform, and to listen to library podcasts on Spotify, iTunes or Spreaker. 

The library’s e-store is operating with minor changes. Detailed information about all the services offered in November can be found on our website www.mbp.szczecin.pl. 

Feel free to use the services provided by the library, and you are welcome to come as soon as such opportunity arises. See you in the library!
