Yet, to make access to the library easier, there is an elevator at the B entrance (at the dormitories, and the parking lot).

The entrance is open during the library working hours and the elevator is on the right.

In order to get to the Reading Room located on the first floor, go to the entrance opposite the elevator with the following text: PRZEJŚCIE SŁUŻBOWE – WEJŚCIE DO CZYTELNI [Only for Employees – Entrance to the Reading Room]. Ask the Librarian on Duty if you want to leave the Reading Room.
