Welcome to the library

Gentofte Kommune is an international municipality and the Gentofte Libraries present a vast selection of books in other languages than Danish.

International section at Gentofte Main Library

The main library Gentofte Hovedbibliotek offers an international section where you will find a selection of fiction and non-fiction in English, including a section about Denmark, the Danes, Danish culture, and Danish fiction translated to English. There is also a selection of books in Arabic, Chinese, and Russian and a section of World Literature - books either translated into English from other languages or written in English by authors from former colonies. 

Free wi-fi

You are always welcome to use our free Wi-Fi at the library. We also have a vast selection of digital media and ressources that you can use both at the library and at home, once you have registered.
