Kista Bibliotek is inside Kista Galleria and is Stockholm’s second-largest library, according to the library. It opened in 2014. This week, its listed activities include chess for adults and young people, running from 10:00 to 20:00 through 31 December, and IT guidance on Monday 2 November from 15:00 to 16:30. Booking for the IT guidance opens at 10:00 on the same day.

The library has 16 study rooms for studying or meetings. Room capacity ranges from two to six people. You can book one room per day for up to four hours, and hold at most two bookings at a time. The library also has 10 drop-in computers in a computer zone outside the library; internet use is limited to 60 minutes per day. IT hosts can help with simple computer tasks from 13:00 to 17:00 on weekdays and 12:00 to 16:00 at weekends.

A library card is free and required to borrow or reserve books. The card also gives access to e-books and audiobooks through the Biblio app. The library’s Wi-Fi is unencrypted and activity on it is logged. There are two entrances, both with escalators; the entrance nearest the street, at Färögatan 30, also has a lift. Hearing loops are available at the information desk and in the tiered seating area by the stage and in the Blackbox.
