Third parties can use the metadata from the Helveticat electronic catalogue and the Bibliography of Swiss History without restrictions.

The National Library lends out items from its collections for external exhibitions and events.

If you are a registered user and cannot find the document you are looking for at the Swiss National Library (NL), you can order it via interlibrary loan. Other libraries in Switzerland or abroad can also request the loan of works held at the NL.

The NL is responsible for the preservation of its collections as part of its legal mandate. Professional recording or photography on the premises of the National Library (with/without collection items) is therefore subject to authorisation.
