The ABPU Library is open to the public.

ABPU members only need their Brucknercard to register.

Users of our partner libraries (Upper Austrian State Library, Diocesan and University Library of the Catholic Private University) need, in addition to their library card, an annual confirmation from their respective main library in order to be able to use the ABPU Library free of charge.

All other users must register at the information/lending desk with an official photo ID (annual fee). For a faster registration, you can fill in and print out the registration form for external library users in advance.
