What we offer you

Let’s Meet a Librarian!

Get Your Virtual One-On-One Q&A Session

Our librarians are now available for virtual One-On-One sessions to give you advice or help you with any difficulties you might experience. Our librarians will organise an individual one-on-one Q&A session with you, so you don’t have to come to the library in person to get your questions answered.

Are you looking for a fun way to improve your language skills? Look no further than our reading club! Join us for a great time together with friends, where we will explore a variety of easy reader books and expand our vocabulary. Our reading club is led by an experienced teacher from Goethe-Institut Myanmar and provides the perfect opportunity to do all of this in a fun and supportive environment.

Welcome to the Children & Youth Program at the library! To provide a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for children and youth, the Library of the Goethe-Institut Myanmar organizes a wide range of programs and activities, such as Yoga & Movement, Women in STEM and Seasonal Craft. We are always adding new activities, so be sure to check our programs often so that you avoid missing anything. We can’t wait to see you at our next event!
