@British Library in Iasi

We have a range of different membership types, with different fees and loan limits.

Irrespective of the membership type, all members can access any available resource on the library premises.

MEMBERSHIP ADD-ONS

You can personalise your membership by choosing an add-on.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Only registered members are allowed to access library resources.

We reserve the right to cancel membership in case of serious infringement of regulations.

Members must produce their membership card on request. The membership card is not transferable.

The membership fee is non-refundable. If you are unable to further benefit from our services, you can transfer your membership to another person, without an additional fee. The new holder can use the membership until the expiry date of the card.

Contact us if you would like more information on which membership type is best for you. 

• Disabled persons can become library members free of charge.
• If you are already a member and decide to renew your library membership card within one month after its expiry date, you will benefit from a 10% discount. This discount only applies if you renew your membership in the same library that you were registered with previously.

• As a birthday present, we give you a 50% discount for all library membership types which are purchased throughout the month of your birthday.
