We are the only English library in North-Rhine-Westphalia with a collection of over 20,000 publications from classic to contemporary, run by an international team of volunteers. The purpose of our organization is to foster a community around English books and culture. We believe that reading opens new doors!

Extended Opening Hours                                                                                 

Dear Reader,

We would like to expand our service for you and have therefore thought about extending opening hours. We are starting a test phase in which we will also be open on Fridays. From 08th March to 19th July we are open for you on Fridays from 3pm to 6pm. 

After 12th April we will decide whether we will be permanently open on Fridays.
