Taalhuis Amsterdam has its own library! Small but wonderful – with books in more than 10 languages.

On Saturday 30 August we celebrated the festive opening of the Taalhuis Library, and what a success it was! Visitors, volunteers and teachers came together to enjoy the multilingual spirit of our community. Teachers recited poems in Greek, Persian, French, Turkish and other languages, and we even had a beautiful spontaneous recital of Neruda by a Spanish guest.

We are proud of the multilingualism that filled the room – and proud of our new library. Even more, we are very happy to now be open!

All Taalhuis students can borrow books and DVDs for free to keep improving in their favorite language. Non-students are also warmly welcome: for just €15 per year, you can become a member and enjoy our collection.

Opening hours Taalhuis Library (now):

• Monday: 16:00–20:00
• Wednesday: 16:00–20:00
• Friday: 11:00–13:30
