The National Library collection never stops growing. That’s why a new repository is needed; to ensure the secure and energy-neutral storage of the collection for the long-term.

The KB is building a new book repository. This promises to be a hypermodern building where our collection will be safe for the next centuries. Some highlights.

The KB is researching the best way to move the entire collection from the current building to a new external repository. Read more about this investigation.

If you’re starting a career in the sciences and want to use our digital collection for research, why not become a researcher-in-residence at the KB? You can use our databases and collaborate with our Digital Humanities team.
