Register and borrow

Everyone can register to borrow books at Nyborg Library.

How to register

Everyone can register for free whether you live in Denmark or visit from another country.

Our staff will help you to register as a member. 

Please bring the following identification:

  • A Danish health insurance card (sundhedskort).
  • If you don't own a Danish health insurance card, please bring some other kind of identification with your name and address.

If you have MitID you can also register online.

If you are below the age of 18 years, we need a consent from your parents. You can get a parental consent form from the staff.

Borrowing and renewing

You can use the self service machines at our libraries to check out and check in books.

You can borrow most of our items for one month. DVD and Blu-ray films as well as games can be borrowed for 14 days. 

If the material is not reserved by another user, you can renew it twice by asking the staff or logging into our website with your personal number and code.

Most of the website is only in Danish, so if you don’t speak the language, it’s far easier to contact the staff. You can call the library staff during the opening hours at phone number 63 33 70 75. If you are calling from a foreign phone, remember to dial the country code 0045 before the number.

You can also write us an e-mail at bibliotek@nyborg.dk or show up at one of our libraries.

Fees and replacement

If you return the material after the expiration date, you have to pay a late fee. The size of the fee is decided by how many days the material is overdue. 

  • 1-6 days overdue = 20 dkr. 
  • 7-13 days overdue = 60 dkr.
  • 14 days or more overdue = 100 dkr.

If you miss the expiration for more than one loan, the size of the fee will depend on the date of the loans. This means, that if you have three expired loans, that were borrowed on three different dates, the fee will be 60 dkr. (3 times 20 dkr. for the three borrowing dates). But if the three loans were borrowed or renewed on the same date, the fee will be 20 dkr. for all of the expired materials.

If you damage or misplace the borrowed materials, you will have to replace it. Please notice, that when replacing a film or a game you will also have to replace the loaning license, which means that the replacing might cost up to 1.000 dkr.

If you owe the library more than 200 dkr, your account will be blocked until you pay the fee.

If you're at the age 0-15 and living in Nyborg Municipality, you won't get late fees, but you still have to replace a damaged or misplaced material. 

You can pay by cash or MobilePay at the library or by MobilePay in the app "Biblioteket".
