Our Vision
The Library at the Goethe-Institut London
Our library in South Kensington is free and accessible to all from morning to evening. Our bright and comfortable rooms are ideal to read a book, meet people, work on your start-up idea or study for your exams.
Our media collection reflects the cultural and social perspectives of modern Germany. With border-crossing and cultural diversity now being a part of the German experience, this means incorporating European points of view. Our digital eLibrary complements the print media.
Our wide-ranging events explore culture, technology, translation and how these elements overlap. We want to connect diverse audiences through experimental formats and spontaneous encounters.
Most importantly we want you to contribute: our library, a room for your ideas.
