Strasbourg National and University Library
A unique and original institution in the world of higher education and research, the National and University Library has a triple vocation: as a reference academic library for the Alsace region and beyond; as a government operator for the deployment of a documentary network of excellence; as a cultural institution working to make our heritage accessible and to disseminate knowledge.
The Museums-PASS-Musées gives access to exhibitions organised at the Bibliothèque nationale universitaire. It does not give access to the library's reading rooms, which are reserved for study purposes.
