A Place to Eat
You are welcome to bring your own food to eat at the library. It’s really cozy to sit down at the coffee tables by the service desk or by the big window facing the swimming pool. Feel free to use the speed boil kettle and the baby bottle warmer in the toddler's corner.
Acoustics and Lighting
The public libraries are places for people to meet up and socialize and are therefore often quite busy. Our library is not only for the public but also for the students of Dalskóli. We often have group visits, and we offer all kinds of events during the week. The swimming pool, Dalslaug, is extremely popular and on weekdays there are swimming classes. Despite that there are often quiet times, and it is possible to find a cozy spot and dive into your reading, work, or school projects. We have some comfortable sofas and tables in our study area.
The acoustics are good in the building, except in the foyer and in the school canteen downstairs.
Beeping sounds can be heard from the self-service machines. Led lights are in the ceilings, but the lighting is mild. The daylight can be enjoyed by the big windows.
Guide dogs are welcome
